Alpha Dog follows a pack of young mobs with Johnny Truelove as their leader. They get mixed up with a serious head case (Jake Mazursky) who screw up a drug deal, and ends up owing Johnny Truelove money.
After much trash talk, a big fight and worse, Johnny Truelove kidnap Jake's 15-year-old brother (Zach) on impulse.
Zach plays along and is OK with it, figuring his brother will pay the debt soon.

Alpha Dog is based on a true story that occured in 2000 and got its finale closure in 2005.
This is a very strong story, but I feel they spend to much time small talking before they get down to the essentials.
A lot of time is spendt on spoiled brats partying and using drugs talking trash to each other.
It makes me wonder if they have done this just to let Justine Timberlake fool around on the set. Personally I think it ruins a movie that could have been awesome.
