Watch Jamesy Boy For Free

Touches You

To me, this movie is perfection.

It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.

Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

Jamesy boy does a great job at the parrell story , but at the end of the movie you kind of knew what he was going to do. Jamesy has sick poems in jail. The characters interacting made the movie better and better as the story goes on. This is a must see!!!!! Go see Jamesy boy on Netflix now!

most of u that hate on this film over stupid things.... it amazing I loved it ... and I think it a lot better then some of these films now days I've watched it twice it based on his life it shows what he went through and what choices James burns had to make and what them choices get him through the film is based on the teenagers in the world today that hang in the wrong crowd so stop hate in okay..... anyways the film amazing I cud watch it like a thousand times it that good it better than green street in ma point of view best film I've ever watched........ the characters play perfect in the scenes and are amazing I love it how James meet the right girl in the end it a love story that don't happen how u would suspect in some films they do now days (girl gets the boy and they live happily ever after etc. ...) the girl moved on even no James did go back to her... his life in prison explained what he had gone through while he was their though not all of us get it that tough.....he was trying to explain in ma eyes that u do make mistakes and with them mistakes they will have a problem the film is a must see because you would understand it better especially my age....

I usually like prison flicks, but this, jeez. Where do I begin. The movie skips back and forward with nothing but the awful artificial aging as a clue. And age yes, its a problem. He is suppose to play an fourteen year old in the flashbacks. Ehm, no. Just no. I don't believe it. And neither should you.Nothing is believable. The gang members are not scary. The cringe-worthy mom-son scenes are, well cringe-worthy. And the love story are so extremely shallow. So in conclusion. Bad acting. Bad casting. Bad writing. Bad directing. Bad movie. If we add that the real James Burns never changed for the better, and still lives hustling and steeling another day, its really no reason for anyone to watch this crap.

I have to disagree with the other reviews here. Before deciding to watch this film, I took a sneak peak on a youtube trailer. It looked decent so I gave it a go. Maybe for snobby upper class people, this movie would not be that great. Truth is, it's a very realistic look into the life of a troubled young man. I can relate due to the events that have taken place in my life as well. If you are a fan of "Baby Boy" , "Boys N The Hood" , "Dog Pound", "Felon" etc, then you will probably enjoy this film as well. It's more of a modern day teenage gangster movie which depicts the reality of a 14 year old violent, drug dealing, stick up kid, hard ass who weaves his way in and out of jail. The acting was up to par with any other Hollywood movies, and was most definitely not "terrible", as stated in other reviews. I rated this movie 8 stars due to the fact that I had expected very little from this film, and yet it delivered a true, gritty, grimy, feel of the life of a teenage gangster. Paired up with average acting and nicely shot camera angles. I would suggest this movie to anyone who enjoys this genre of film. Take a chance, you won't regret it!
