good movie

This was a great film that examines the inner city life and its effects on youth. I liked how this film explored the differences in rural and urban lives. Richard Roundtree was great and it was good to see him return to the big screen and he definitely brought a little bit of "Shaft" mojo. John Schneider makes a good turn as well. The cast is rounded out by some young up and coming actors who are all great. The young urban kids are actually the most interesting part of the film. At some times the film does move a little slow while on the ranches going through every day mundane ranch life. Then trouble shows up when gang leader Caz arrives looking for what was stolen from him. Christian themed with a great soundtrack as well.

Themselves and their ministry

Youth ministers Randy and Heidi Gunn star in a movie about themselves and their ministry. The ministry is an urban one and it takes inner city kids at risk and takes them from their environment and brings them out to the country.

Not an incredibly unusual idea, it's been done ever since Father Frank Flanagan established Boys Town which story and film got Spencer Tracy his second Oscar. No Oscar winning performances here though.

Story is easy to take, preaching down to a minimum. The soundtrack is saturated with Christian rock.

Best in the film is Richard Roundtree who's been around the block a few times and now works for the mnistry. Kids can't get over on him.

This one won't leave church audiences.
