Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great flick!!!!! Two Thumbs Up!!
I also happen to love this movie. I, however, don't know why DJ Honeybear is going all in a huff about this movie, and they way others review it. If others want to give a synopis, so be it. Sure they're ignorant, and most likely not as sophisiticated as you most likely are, but that doesn't mean you have to use harsh words to put them down. They are, afterall, reviewing for free. I suggest you take a warm bath, and put your feet up, and try to relax. You'll live longer.

One such movie was "The Young Savages". I was seared by the image of Puerto Rican gangs in New York where teenagers would ... Read More
