East Side kids are a gang of old looking kids. Danny "the only half-way appealing" kid is rewarded $200 for tripping a wanted criminal thereby leading to the man's arrest. Rest of the East Side kids believe that the money belongs to them and take it away from Danny and throw him out of the gang. At this point you say to yourself "Danny, leave these bunch of hoods behind!" The person Danny sent to jail escapes and beats up Danny. He is on the verge of death. The East Side kids now care again for Danny and he recovers and all get new baseball uniforms with the $200. More happens but nothing very interesting. A dull film with characters that are not very likable. You are left asking - don't these "kids" ever plan on getting a job?
