I saw and taped that movie- it was REALLY good- I put up a review before- lots of tension, plus some romance, and a really good ending. I enjoyed it a lot.

2 thumbs up! :D

I rented that on DVD sometime last year. I thought it was cool too. Did you spot the old Mercantone Uno Jerseys on one of the "thugs"?

Nope- but I may go back and have a look-see. That's pretty cool.

Very good movie, but a good ending? They both got beat up and they smashed the bike up.....

Yeah, but the kid got his bike back-and I loved seeing how he was so into his bike that he slung that beat up bike on his shoulder and slumped away.

I guess I'm just one for movies with a twist.

Did you catch the reason he stayed with the kid? in the ally before they got beat up. I was hoping he would get away. I guess I just like to see the good guy win.

He didn't have a choice- when they were surrounded, that was about it... so they both got a whuppin'.

The rich kid asked him "Why are you following me?" He ansered "I don't the way out"
