For a film about young people it developed slowly even tortuously. It had a number of strands Privileged white kids slumming it ,sometime dangerously People starting out with the wrong people for the wrong reasons People ending up with the right people for the right reasons The violent world of hip hop capitalism Manipulative revenge Parental /child relationships
Ad that to great performances from ;
Robert Downey Jr. Joe Pantoliano Brooke Shields Ben Stiller
Great cameo from Mike Tyson
Plenty of rappers being themselves ( rakweon and method man )
Claudia Schiffer she actually can act
Many younger actors William Lee Scott, Bijou Phillips, Elijah Wood, Eddie Kaye Thomas, Gaby Hoffmann
This will be a classic like juice
