After seeing this film at the Tribeca film festival, I have to say that Charles Hunnam and Elijah Wood gave outstanding performances in their roles. The movie's focus deals with what are the consequences that come from violence. It is a graphic movie whose message is non-violent. Charles Hunnam I believe gave an exceptional performance, one that will be remembered for a long time to come. Elijah Wood proved his versatility as a great actor , playing the role of a young academic turned street smart gang member whose loyalty goes beyond devotion to his mates. It's a raw movie about male companion ship mixed with trust and bravery all aimed in the wrong directions...I've seen this film only once and desire to see it again... the light hearted moments that were sprinkled in and then the very end's wonderful song "I'm forever blowing bubbles... pretty bubbles in the air..' only adds to the poignant message one carries away with them after viewing this excellent movie. I highly recommend it for 14 years and older...
