sickly sweet

Warning: Spoilers
Poor kid from the wrong side of the tracks slides into a life of crime and stays there thanks society and the lack of help from some school chums. Overly sweet and teary this is a film that you will either find a pleasant reminder of days gone by or else it will be else it will be a silly yuckfest of the sort of ridiculous super saccharine movies that make you laugh at the earnestness of it all. For me it was the latter which made its 85 minutes a tough slog during which I said "you must be kidding" more times then is allowable by law. Its every cliché you can think of all rolled into one. I found it horribly dated and really not worth the effort I put into it. Then again if you like sickly sweet films, even when they are showing you the dark side this maybe for you.
