    Thought even disregarding the dialogue it caught that insular teenage thing really well. Plus I'm a sucker for dialogue that someones put a little effort into.

    That Gene Hackman movie Heist is another one - would've been a pretty mediocre thriller but the David Mamet dialogue lifts it nicely, even with all the predictable double crosses.

    In fact, that was the other thing I liked about this movie, it didn't use any of the normal lazy plot devices to move the story along.
