"You had it all, and you threw it away, you dumb ####!"
Brooklyn boy Monty Brogan (Edward Norton) is heading to prison for dealing heroin. He'll be locked up for at least seven years. The last 24 hours of his free life is spent with his girl friend Naturelle Riveria (Rosario Dawson), his two best friends, high school teacher Jakob Elinsky (Philip Seymour Hoffman) and bond trader Frank Slaughtery (Barry Pepper), his father James (Brian Cox), and his friend Kostya Novotny (Tony Siragusa).

Monty and others take a hard look at their lives as the twenty-fifth hour approaches.
Also appearing is Anna Paquin as Mary D'Annunzio.
Shows the rough, raw and racist reality many live daily. Intense.
Directed by Spike Lee.
Run time: 2 hours, 15 minutes
Rated R for strong language and some violence.
My personal rating: B
