Detailed item info | Movie description | Stevo becomes a punk rebel in Reagan-era Salt Lake City. His ex-hippie father sees his lifestyle as a rite of passage and urges him to attend Harvard Law School like himself- not to sell out to the system, but to buy in. For Stevo, underneath the mohawk haircuts, earrings and leather, the idea, painfully, has some merit.

| | Editorial reviews | "...SLC PUNK! is likable for its outlandishness..." New York Times - Janet Maslin (04/16/1999)
"...Merendino juggles narrative time cleverly..." Premiere - Glenn Kenny (04/01/1999)
"...It's a sharp, funny and ultimately wise and subtle coming-of-age movie....Rambunctious, explosive, scabrous and relentlessly in your face, SLC PUNK ringingly tells it like it is..." Los Angeles Times - Kevin Thomas (04/16/1999)
"...[Lillard's] performance dominates the film, and he does a subtle, tricky job of being both an obnoxious punk and a kid in search of his direction in life. He's very good..." Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert (05/14/1999)
