Alpha Dog is definetley something that will stay with me for a long time.

When I first took a look, and sneaked a peak at this movie I looked and immediatley I was drawn away from the fact that it had, Justin Timberlake. Many of you know him as one of the singers from Nysnc, but now he has grown to be an Pop and R&B star, I looked at this movie and thought that it was just a way for JT to make his way into hollywood, but that was not it at all. I learned a valuble lesson, never judge a book by its cover

THE GOOD :

The Action:
This movie was definetly action packed, it revolves arond a story about a kid who runs away from home and is kidnapped by the enemies of his brother, a notorious drug dealer. From the minute the movie starts there is an on edge feeling that you have no idea what is gonna happen next. I will not go too deep about the details.

The Acting:
I think that the acting in this movie is oscar winning, but it definetly gives you a glimpse of reality. The acting makes it seem that all these guys are actually buddies and this is a true thing that it happening, I actually came to think that JT was a "gangster" but then I remembered the Nsync days and quickly got back to my senses.

THE BAD:

Justin Timberlake:

He was just not one to be suited for the role, I was mearly hazed for a moment when I actually bought the role that JT was trying to protray.

Overall, I dont think that you should buy this movie because it's only good one time rent it, watch it, like it.
