Too Young to Die? is a 1990 television movie starring Brad Pitt and Juliette Lewis. It touches on the debate concerning the death penalty. It is based on a true story.
The film is loosely based on Attina Marie Cannaday, who along with David Gray and Dawn Bushart, killed Ronald Wojcik, in Harrison County, Mississippi on June 3, 1982.
Juliette Lewis was very good in this, she was just 17 when this was filmed. Brad Pitt was solid as the sleazy Billy Canton. Decent movie but it really tells just one side of the story.
I hate the finnish dvd cover art where Juliette holds a gun. She doesn´t have a gun in this flick Here´s the french dvd cover:

I like my cheese.... especially my martial arts cheese, but this was pretty damn dire, to say the least! So cheap it hurts, laughable acting and dialogue, and the most ridulous villains i've ever seen. The only saving grace was Tang Tak Wing as the kung fu master. He also directed the action scenes, which as a result, came out above average for an american MA flick. But as a whole, this was close to unwatchable. I couldn't even laugh at its awfulness, which is an important factor with these kinds of movies.

Awful movie. I can't understand why it has as much as 6.1/10 on IMDb. Much less can I understand why, on top of that, everyone calls it "underrated". Overlooked, perhaps. But as it stands I would personally call it overrated. Way overrated.
I'm not sure what was worse. The acting, the script, or the special effects? It was pretty bad through-and-through. And I even like Charlie Sheen. His performance here was as awful as the movie itself, though.

Another 48 Hours. It was released in 1990, but it still feels like an 80's movie to me.
