Overall, I thought the story was compelling. It showed that not all movies have a definitive good guy or bad guy. The dynamic between the characters leaves you engrossed in the film. Beckford, Ali, Rex and Palladino show true acting chops by embracing roles that you would not expect them to portray. The true show stoppers are Raymond Barry as he gives a vivid and gripping explanation into his dark and assorted past and Tatyana Ali leaving the comfort of "Bel-Air" and exploring the depths of gritty street life. Beckford does a nice job of being a protagonist while Rex is both a conflicted sidekick who gets caught up in the crossfire. I recommend this film. While you may not get gun totting action you do get plenty of stylistic and visual storytelling.
