Worthwhile. If you're looking for a great movie, you've come to the wrong place. As a troubled youth I was guided to this film by my parents and church. I got the wrong idea, apparently. I formed my own gang. The movie itself is awful. Try the book "Run, Baby, Run" by Nicky Cruz.Nicky's novel is far better realized, without the obvious attempts to convert. It tells the tale of a troubled and abused teenager trying to make his way in New York City. It is at times heartbreaking, exciting, informative and timely. The Mau Maus were a gang at the time. Highly feared by both the populace and the police. Nickys tale of redemption was, and is inspirational to me.
