Description
A group of wealthy Los Angeles teenagers try to become part of the "gangsta" lifestyle but soon run into trouble when they come face to face with a real gang of Latino drug dealers.
Amazon.com
After making her name in The Princess Diaries, Anne Hathaway takes a radical detour with this edgy independent drama. As Allie, a wealthy gangsta wannabe, she makes no excuses for her delinquent behavior: "We're just teenagers and we're bored." When her Pacific Palisades posse, including pal Emily (Bully's Bijou Phillips), starts hanging out with a Latino gang (including Six Feet Under's Freddy Rodriguez), they learn what thug life is really about. Hathaway couldn't be more game: She swears, she fights--she disrobes (several times). Written and directed by Oscar winners Stephen Gaghan (Traffic) and Barbara Kopple (American Dream), Havoc plays like a B movie, in the vein of the superior crazy/beautiful, and was released straight to video. For Hathaway fans, it's a chance to see this young talent in a very different light, but for Gaghan and Kopple followers, this lurid morality tale is sure to come as a letdown. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

 Anne Hathaway should be ashamed December 3, 2008
Anne Hathaway should be ashamed to have show nudity in this movie. How could she, after being in Disney movies go and show her naked breast in this movie. Shes such a talented actress that it was not necessary for her to do so. I found this move do be average, and an partially enjoyable movie to watch, except for Anne Hathaway's naked breasts. I do hope Anne will not do anymore nude moments in movie.
 What In The World November 15, 2008
I Am A Big Fan Of Anne. I Have Seen All Of Her Movies. This Film Was Bad. A Bunch Of Rich White Teens Acting Like There A Gangster Rapper Living In The Hood Come On. There Are People Of All Types That Live In Those Places For Real And Not Faking It Like In The Movie. I Know Anne Wanted To Do Something Other Then Disney Kid Films. Her Role Was Crappy. She Can Do Better Then That. I Mean This Film Was Like At Wedding Where They Play A Rap Tune And The old White Lady's Try To Act Like It(Save It For "Scary Movie"). That's Not Funny Its Sad. I Like Rap And I Have Nothing Against It. But The monkey See Monkey Do Thing Good God. If Anne Or Her Friends Read this. Don't Take It The Wrong Way. Your A Great Actress And Any Role You Play Will Be Great. Just Please Don't Use Better Judgment Next Time. On The Plus Side You Do Have A Great Voice You Should Do Recorded An Album.
Flimsy attempt to showcase rich townie wannabes September 9, 2008
One day, probably through some seriously independent medium, someone's actually going to muster up the courage to properly showcase the wretched, filthy cancer that is the suburban, drug addicted, spoiled, insipid, wannabe gangster. UNFLINCHINGLY. It may take a while, but it will happen. This film is the quasi-portrait. Sugarcoated by today's pc culture because most cowards will still attempt to veil the fact that most inner-city drug sales come from suburbans. Most of the pan-handling/thieving drug addicted annoyances and prostitutes filthying up urban streets are actually out of control former suburban transplants who had to be hardcore and hang out in the city and buy and consume drugs. The people mildly and unrealistically portrayed in this film are the germ that starts this disease.
Bored suburban transplants aren't entirely the cause of the decline of urban living, but a lot of the horror and "scum" from the "CITY" that rich suburban parents warn their children about, and teach them to feel superior to are actually from their magical suburbs. This film could've told this story, but didn't.
I'm caucasian and lived in an urban setting my entire life and have witnessed this issue for way too long.
In summation, someone will tell this story in a raw and sincere fashion one day. This film does not.
Anne please don't do this again. July 30, 2008

Why? because your image is beautiful, classy, pure, important. You do not need to get involved with crap like this because you are much better than that. I love you but don't turn me off like this again. Do the hit woman or the fairy tales or romance just anything but the ghetto stuff.

Seems a bit out of character for Ms Hathaway, but shows her versatility as an actress, not to mention shes HOT. Looking forword to more of her in some more dramatic parts. Shes totally cool . .
