Creative, Outrageous and Fun!, 6 June 2005
7/10
Author: (serrot1007) from United States

It is rare these days to go to a movie and see something truly unique. At my first viewing of SJK, that's exactly what I got. In this outrageous story, I cared about the characters and enjoyed their adventure. Everyone can relate to trying to find themselves. Everyone can relate to heartbreak and thinking about what could have been. But can you relate to all of these things happening at the same time in the same car? It takes a truly different and unique mind to smash cultures together the way Steve Mallorca did for SJK. The music was written by Mr. Mallorca and the theme song is set at just a perfect pace for the movie. I Strongly Recommend seeing SJK.
