    It's my favorite movie. It felt very real. I've never ever cared about characters from a movie until now. Excellent piece of work if it can make me think that hard.

    Great movie. Johny reminds me of myself and how I go through many obstacles to follow my dream. The movie reflects on a realtionship between to people that is a sacret bond between to people who have feelings for each other.

    Even though the movie was very unrealistic, I found it surprisingly entertaining. After watching other movies that featured Jesse Bradford-("Bring It On" ect.)-, he really caught me off guard playing somewhat dramatic role. I was looking forward to seeing how Tiffani-Amber Thiessen fit into the movie but her acting left me wondering how great the scene would've been like minus one.

    Almost perfect. gave it a 9 because it broke my heart and made my cry on behalf of the characters. Especialy Jordan Brower and Daryl Hannah gave the movie life.

    You would think it is only about sex and drugs but it isn't. It shows many teens and young adults who live live on the streets. Jonathan Taylor Thomas was great!!! He can play bad.

    This movie was one that portrays a gay character as a friend that has alterior motives that change do to his love for the straight character (johnny). Most people do not see this side of a gay character very often. So thanks to Nickolas Perry who made this movie to show that gays can make excellent friends...

    Great effort, although not perfect, is a fine reflection of the young actors.

    An excellent effort by Perry who pulled off some very good results despite a very limited budget and constant meddling by the producers. Cast and crew showed amazing versatility shooting in adverse conditions. JTT's last minute appearance saved the day for the film. He and Jordan Brower really shined, Perry bringing out side of their talents never seen or demanded in previous television roles. Daryl Hannah was, as always, great. … Expand

    This movie is like drinking beer and eating pretzels on a Mormon colony on the moon; It seems familiar, but it's all fu.ked up and sugar coated and without gravity.

    I had to give this a 10. By far one of my favorite movies. It was extremely touching and is nearly guaranteed to make you cry. One of the few movies I have bought.

    Hard to watch -- not because of its unflinching realism, but rather for its mawkish reliance on every boy hooker flick from "Midnight Cowboy" to "Johns."

    A potent mixture of sentiment and grit, and it showcases the talents of its young principals.

    The film belongs to Jordan Brower, whose every appearance breaks one's heart, and makes some otherwise familiar material come alive.
