Dove Review

The only thing worth mentioning about this film is that it was based on a true story. As we follow the events surrounding the abduction of a 15 year old boy and his introduction into the Southern California drug scene, we are quickly made aware that depravity exists in all its forms and is practiced freely by some of today’s youth. Kids drink, drug and party with no apparent responsibility or parental authority.

Unfortunately, this film will only appeal to those with the same dispensation as the characters in the story.
