Alpha Dog is worth watching alone for the performance of Ben Foster as rebel skinheaded drug dealer Jake Mazursky. This character stole the film hands down. The story is based on real life story behind middle class drug dealer Jesse James Hollywood who was a fugitive for a murder that was finally caught.
Alpha Dog's plot is about a Jake's brother who is kidnapped over his overdue drug debt. Justin Timberlake was much better in the film then I expected. He can act. It would have been better to me if former boxer Fernando Vargas had a bigger part.
This is a film that is worth watching if you like a story about young drug dealers acting out. Writer and Director Nick Cassavetes should be praised for the direction of the film.
