Well done independent

A teen genre film that doesn't disappoint. We all can relate to the jocks, the preppies, and the outcasts, and the sometimes difficult transition period of high school. Newcomer, Sean, the son of two hopeless alcoholics drifts, with a group of outcasts, led by the charismatic creeper, Ricky Gladstone. Sean has his eyes on preppy Sarah, who runs with the jocks. There lies the dilemma. Does Sean clean up his act and go with Sarah, or wreak havoc with Ricky and his band of outcasts on mischief night? Good performances by newcomers, Myko Oliver, who plays Sean, and Luke Baines, who plays Ricky. A nice study of teenage alienation, peer pressure, and the difficult choices many teens ultimately have to make that may determine the direction of their entire lives.
