Better Luck Tomorrow (2002)

Drama - High School - Asian-American kids band together as a group of overachievers with a need to let off steam and walk a bit on the wild side. Selling cheat sheets, writing exaggerated journalism, some minor theft.... But then it escalates into drug-dealing, occasional violence, and even a death. Suddenly, things are very serious. The story is well-paced and the acting sincere. For a low budget production, this was quite entertaining. 98 min.
