A well filmed, well cut, picture that shows the world what inner-city violence was all about. Thankfully, the gang violence had toned down since this film was last shot, which was during 1993 inside of South Central L.A.'s gang sets.

But what is so compelling about this flick is that it shows you REAL gang members who were sharing their tales to you, as well as having some REAL incidents brought to life on the screen. This is not a standard-type movie, a half-documentary and half motion picture is what it is, and it all runs through so smoothly. Getting you to know the gang "colors" red flags for the bloods/pirus and the blue rags for the crip sets. The narrators are former OG's (old/original gansters) who break it down to the YG's, (young gangsters) as well as you, the viewer, of what went down during the gang-banging lifestyle, Incidentally, a few of these narrators had wounds to show which can be slightly disturbing.

This film was finally released on video a few years later in 1997. Apparently several of the participants of this flick didn'nt make it to see the final cut. Nonetheless, this is a film that should be seen, noticed, and acknowledged about the consequences and the prevention that plauged many lives in Los Angeles and across the nation.
