10

Francis Ford Coppola's gang film is as moony about death as One From the Heart was over romance; the film is unremitting in its morbid sentimentality, running its teenage characters through a masochistic gamut of beatings, killings, burnings, and suicides.

Coppola's teenagers seem trapped inside too many layers of storytelling.
