Good

I first wanted to watch this film because I was really getting into everything that Eric Szmanda was doing. Having loved him in CSI,I thought I should watch some of his films. This was the first of his I watched.

The storyline is good. You have the country boy(Billy) who wants to go and play in the big DJ competition in the city. There he meets a black guy who becomes a very good friend to him. He also meets a lovely girl who falls in love with him.

Billy has to beat all the competition,including a very nasty guy who will do anything to have Billy taken out of the competition. Billy isn't scared and he.............I wont tell you. You have to watch this film.

Overall a good feel good film. One to watch with your mates.
