Product Description:
In prison they are the law. On the streets they are the power. Studio: Uni Dist Corp. (mca) Release Date: 02/27/2007 Starring: Sal Lopez Dyana Ortelli Run time: 125 minutes Rating: R Director: Edward James Olmos
Amazon.com:
Actor-turned-director Edward James Olmos set out to spread the word against the destructiveness of gang violence with this 1992 gritty drama. Set in the barrios of East Los Angeles, he attempts to cover 30 years in the life of a family with strong gang ties. This brutally realistic story may not intentionally glorify violence, but it offers no answers. (Olmos actually shot the prison scenes in Folsom, which explains their harsh reality.) Great performances though, especially by Olmos and William Forsythe. Olmos plays a gang leader released from prison who is finally in touch with himself, only to realize it is too late. The one major problem with this well-intentioned flick is that it is rated R for violence, nudity, and profanity. Therefore, the kids who most need its message are not, in theory, the ones who will see it. --Rochelle O'Gorman

I saw this movie when first released on Video and couldn't get it on DVD till now even better on HD DVD with great acting by Edward James Olmos & William Forsythe with a terrific soundtrack as well ... Excellent Recommended .

I agree with "Joker", it makes you sick only because it's the truth. Prison makes pigs of men (women??), they have no conscious, forget about morals, it's kill or be killed. It's a sad life but it seems these people never learn their lesson-they keep making the same mistakes. In this movie one of them even kills his own brother because he was ordered to.
GOOD MOVIE BUT VERY SAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I saw this movie back in 1992 and several times after that, this movie will capture you and intrigue you. While I would not recommend this movie to the younger crowds, it is definately an eye opener. To think that Eddie Olmos received threats for making this movie from the EME, it's crazy. It really shows you life in the streets and behind prison.
Saddly several people were killed after the complition of this movie, for having ties with it. A lot of knowledge went into producing this ... Read More

This was a horrible movie and complete waste of time. The acting was terrible, it was like they were reading a script. I don't get what the other review was talking about when they said they had nightmares for weeks, there was nothing that graphic in here. I had to force myself to finish watching it, hoping it would get better, but it didn't.
