Review:
An amazing movie.
We picked this up a long time ago, Fredrik said it was very good, and it is an incredible movie!

I am not a Russell Crowe fan, but I could tolerate him for this movie.
Definately a movie worth seeing. Very much like American History X.
Very entertaining.

After being romantically involved with Romper Stomper co-star 'Jaquline McKenzie', Daniel Pollock (a heroin addict) threw himself under a train after filming was finished.

Once banned in Finland and South Korea.
