Most of the young actors in this stereotypical and predictable teen drama are hard put to convey the angst or depth of character needed to fuel the main plot device: rivalry between a motorcycle gang and a group of jazz fans. The teens are not all of the same stripe and vary from one youth who seems to be heading toward a career as a hoodlum, to a woman who is kept by a leisurely hippie type. In the background, perhaps because of the nature of one of the groups, is some great jazz music by people like Oscar Pettiford, Sweden's Jack Lidstroem, Benny Bailey, and others.
