Stars a host of actors that have offered so much better in past and future films...
January 01, 2000
A shallow script that never gets at the heart or conflict behind the swagger.
January 01, 2000
Last reel is particularly disappointing in its naive philosophy, manifest in Younger's rush to bring the various conflicts to satisfying closure.
June 24, 2006
Turns of dialogue ring compellingly true, and the well chosen cast (especially Ribisi) carry the inflections of the drama with some style.
January 01, 2000
Despite Ribisi's success in giving Seth some sleepy-eyed, slouching charisma, we never really know what makes him tick.

...bad films are common enough that it's probably worth making distinctions between the unwatchable and the guilty pleasure.
July 23, 2007
A skillful and convincing rise-and-fall story.
August 07, 2008
Almost liked this one about greedy, young stockbrokers working for an illegal firm, but hated the ending so much it derailed the movie.
December 22, 2010
Good but mature movie. Not for kids.
January 03, 2007
A confident movie that tackles a worthwhile topic with insight and conviction.
March 19, 2002
To put the movie in sales terms, after a good opening pitch, Younger fails to close the deal. The audience can't buy in.
January 01, 2000
The movie draws from the works that preceded it, then takes to the street with a too-cool hip-hop strut.
