A gritty disturbing true storyReview created: 08/08/07

This was based on true story and that is the most disturbing part of this whole movie. You just can’t make this stuff up. It is just too weird and unsettling.
Justin Timberlake steels the show here. He is gritty and shows he can really act.
It is violent and has strong language so if this is not your thing stay away.
If you want to see a movie that is disturbing and gritty then this is for you

Justin Timberlake breaks out of the Boy Band and into the Movies!! Alpha Dog is Based on a True Tragic Story of how Things can spiral out of Control quickly when Dealing Drugs are involved. The Opening scene begins with a Gathering in a Lavish Suite of the Young Drug Lord. This scene sets the Tone and Hierarchy of the Close Circle of Friends, some of whom are obviously just the brainless leg-men. The Plot Thickens when a Large Deal with a Drug User/Distributor outside of the circle of friends turns south when the debt cannot be repaid. The Kingpin devises a diabolical plot to strike revenge against the Deadbeat User by Kidnapping his Innocent Adolescent Brother. One thing leads to another and Justin Ends up being the "Babysitter" and befriending the Kidnapped boy even letting him party and hang out with him at parties unrestrained. My Heart went out to the Naive Boy who actually had chances/offers to escape but decides instead to hang out with his Newfound "Friend". Knowing the Conclusion of the Movie was inevitable it was Sad watching a Young Boy Live, Love and Learn his Last Day! The ending was very Moving watching the Tearful Exchange between the Victim and Justin.
The Performances of Justin and the Kid were Sensational. They put you actually in the moment of the Tragic Events. Justin is full of Tatoos and Often shirtless which only adds to this Truth Based Tragic Story!! I recommend this movie to be watched with the whole family as a Very Valuable Lesson about Drugs and Misplaced Loyalties can be learned by all! Thank You for Reading!! Happy Ebaying!

Keeps You GuessingReview created: 06/25/07

If you are looking for action and mystery all in one this may be for you. It is a roller coaster ride that keeps you guessing and has alot of surprise twists. Very dark action comedy that if were based on a true story really makes you wonder how far off the story they went. Definately NOT for kids.

A TRUE FBI STORYReview created: 04/12/07

I just saw this @ Sundance. The people leaving the first screening gave this bad buzz so I was sceptic as to what I was in for. but Since I got a ticket @ face value I went on in. Much to my surprise this turned out to be a good flick. I'm tired of the happy hollywood endings and prefer something more real. Well, this was based on a true story! Bruce willis was his typical self. Sharon stone was great, especially at the ending! The only reason I can think why the first screening gave it bad reviews was, the people were parents, & were relating to the errors that the parents in the movie made. If you want a happy ending, rent something else. If you want to see what really happens when people make bad decisions in life then you should like this.

The movie is based on a true story which makes it interesting. Justin Timberlake is so hot in it and I was really suprised that he could actually act. I wouldn't suggest any kids watching it by any means. Its entertaining from beginning to end (in one way or another). I'm so glad I have the movie now and for about a third of the price.

MovieI thought it looked like a good movie, so I decided to buy it, Because I never rent, I collect dvd's anyway, so it just adds to my collection if i don't like them, and if i do, then i can watch them over and over again. Overall it was a pretty good movie.

All emotions at onceReview created: 02/07/08
by:
I saw this movie a while ago and loved it. You show all emotions you could possibly show. Great acting and just the thought of this movie being based on a true actual events get you envolved some how. I recomend this movie 100% if you enjoy a rollercoaster ride of emotions.

Alpha Dog - The Alpha MovieFirst of all, let me tell you that I am a huge Bruce Willis fanatic. When I heard he was in this movie, I had to see it. I had no idea what his role would be, or how much he would appear in the film. Secondly, I had no idea who Emile Hirsch was. After I pouted a little about 20 minutes into the film after realizing that Brucie wasn't the main character, I discovered that what I was watching was a very interesting and realistic story. The cast gave surprisingly excellent performances, and I am now a Nick Cassavetes fan. He did a great job directing a story that's based on true events.
The story and perspectives it shows are great, and really help to understand "how a crime with that many witnesses could go so far" - the films tag line. I found the characters to be lovable, despite their decisions and way of doing things. Justin Timberlake was my favorite character, and he was probably the reason I feel that way about all the characters.
