Three teenagers, part of a car theft ring in Newark, are pursued by a sadistic cop on a disastrous joyride. Tough-minded and harrowing, with a refreshingly realistic view of prevailing relations between cops and kids on the mean streets of the 90s. It's enhanced by the remarkable eye of director Nick Gomez, whose first feature, LAWS OF GRAVITY, was remiscent of Cassavetes. leave a comment
Coming of age in Newark, NJ, where stealing cars is a way to make money, prove you're a man and have some fun. Growing up isn't always a joy ride.

From Executive Producer Spike Lee comes a sizzling action-thriller. The game is cars - taking them from the street for a hot thrill-ride to the fence or the chop shop - and then living off the high until the next Mercedes or BMW rolls by. This is the only life that Jason Petty (Sharron Corley) and his crew understand. And when police lieutenant Emil Roscoe (Saul Stein) pursues his personal vendetta against Jason, the game gets deadly. The odds against survival are overwhelming, but surrounded by friends, family and a glimmer of hope - there's a chance they can turn their lives around. Energized by a riveting rap soundtrack, this urban drama takes a daring look at life on the street - the way it really is.
