He finds solace in local girl, Lil' Bit, but as the romance blossoms Jesse finds himself confronted by the neighborhood mobster, Capone (Danny Trejo) who owns Lil' Bit.

  • Reaches for thematic resonance and ends up only clich-deep.

  • The film's inconsistencies, details that never seem to add up plausibly, along with the script's stilted dialogue, do the most harm to Kaponas' debut feature.
