Young Guns, 8 September 1999
10/10
Author: Thaleia from Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada

A trio of small town friends intent on pulling off a big-time burglary. Nothing in life seems to favor them and this heist won't either. The cast is young and fresh and the plot is humorous and exciting. Extremely watchable. Good flick for a pick-me up some night.
