[DVD Details]
 
 
  • Vin Diesel in his directorial debut "Strays" takes a hard look at his own adolescence and upbringing in New York City. Rick (Vin Diesel) is a "stray" - raised on the streets, lacking a traditional family structure and wrestling subconsciously with his father's absence. When he meets Heather, he sees the opportunity for a meaningful relationship and an escape from a world of drug dealing and street hustling. Trying to assimilate into Heather's world will not be easy as Rick struggles to overcome the perception that he is turning his back on his old neighborhood and friends. Though the chemistry between the couple is immediately charged, Rick's street manner and volatile aggression, threaten to extinguish their relationship before it begins.

    A rough but engaging character study.

    It's far from remarkable but there's enough about Strays to convince you Vin Diesel's more than a bald guy with a funny voice and big ol' biceps.

    Diesel is credible as Rick, a stray in Manhattan trying to go straight, and Lanza delivers a likeable girlfriend from a world far away from Rick's.
