Try looking up "The Hip Hop Massacre" online. It was acually really good! Unknown characters, great story line, and an even greater plot twist. You might say it even got me enthused about going back to the theatre's again...if they played a film likt this one anyway.

There were some younger people, but not the sort of riff-raff one might expect at an evening showing on a Friday night. The movie experience in general has gotten worse and more expensive, and I find it harder and harder to rationalize seeing just any movie in the theater. My strategy is to try and see the movies I really want to see in the theater as early as possible - sneak previews if at all possible. Otherwise, I wait for it to come out on DVD or pay-per-view and watch it in the comfort of my own home.
