From the moment i saw the trailer for this film i wanted to see it. The VHS style spoke to me but the reviews made me weary, i skipped it in cinema, rented it today, and fuck, i wish i had seen it in theatres. This is a great crime film about the rise of a teenage drug/arms dealer that is an informant for the FBI, set in seedy Detroit. Matthew McConaughey makes silencers but wants to own a video store, his son becomes a powerful crime/cop associate and is has a disco & neon drenched vibe and a grim feel. Video stores, discos, drugs, guns, this is a pure cult crime film.
