Maybe _SLC Punk_ isn't exactly an accurate portrayal of my life in alternative culture, Hell, maybe it isn't exactly an accurate portrayal of **anyone's** life in alternative culture, but seeing a movie where people belonging to alternative culture are actually **characters**? That was a massive deal to me growing up, and this alone would make me a fan of _SLC Punk_, but even aside from that there is its unique filming style, solid acting presence and intense philospohical questions to push it over the line into worthwhile. _Final rating:★★★★ - Very strong appeal. A personal favourite._
