Alpha Dog:

Johnny is a Los Angeles drug dealer. He comes from a good family, owns his home, several cars and enjoys partying with his friends. Johnny is 19.

This is a decent film. I really didn’t know what to expect from it. The trailers made it look a bit interesting, some violent gang members with a kidnap’ situation.

But gang/violent movie of the year is probably The Departed, still my favorite.

    uhhh, sounds interesting….

    btw, te recomiendo una que se llama ”Babel”, del escritor de amores perros ( no se si la viste… pero bueno, es con Brat Pitt y Gael Garcias ( el protagonista del el diario ne motocicletas) y Cate Blanchett ( the lord of the rings: the felowship…Galardriel or something :P). The point is que es muy buena, trata de las cosa que pasan por un accidente, las situaciones que encuentras, la gente que conoces, sus cosecuencias, etc…

    u must see….as soon as u read this :P
    take care.
