Across the Tracks rules!

"Though this movie is slightly cheesy, and obviously neither Brad nor Ricky's best work, it is very entertaining nonetheless. Brad Pitt as a track star...need I say any more? And Ricky Schroeder as a troubled youth looking to make a fresh start...brilliant. The best part of the movie is the drunk scene (if you watch it you'll know what I mean), which can be reenacted over and over with your friends for hours and hours of guaranteed hilarity. A must see, and one of my favorites!"
Low budget and poorly produced but still a great film

"The film starts off feeling like a bad Lifetime movie. It has a sort of after school special feel to it. It's low budget, not very skillful in its direction, and Pitt is still developing his craft. He's not yet at his best. Despite all this, the further you get into the film the more involving it becomes. I loved this film.
There is a lot of depth to the relationship between the two brothers and besides Without Limits this is the best track film that I have ever seen."
