In Los Angeles, the gang of teenagers leaded by King (Dermot Mulroney) survives on the streets begging, prostituting and stealing money. Among King's best friends are Little J (Balthazar Getty), who is a gay prostitute; Greg (Sean Astin), who is drug addicted capable of stealing to buy drugs with the dealer Ted (Kyle MacLachlan); and the paralytic Manny (Will Smith). When the newcomer and runaway from Chicago Heather (Lara Flynn Boyle) meets King, they fall in love for each other. But when Little J kills Tommy Ray to protect King, he is falsely accused of murder and chased by the police, with tragic consequences. "Where the Day Takes You" approaches an important and delicate theme, the life of teenagers on the streets, but unfortunately following the glamour and asepsis of Hollywood movies. A couple of weeks ago, I saw the German movie "Engel & Joe", which has a similar storyline, but in a very realistic view and with a beautiful non-commercial final message of hope and peace. In "Where the Day Takes You", actors and actresses are handsome and beautiful, there is no message in the end, and it is almost a kind of incentive for teenagers with problem with their families to run away home, provided they do not use smack or buy a gun. The soundtrack with wonderful songs of Melissa Etheridge is excellent. My vote is six. Title (Brazil): "A Lei de Cada Dia" ("The Law of Each Day")

I just got this movie on DVD and me and my brother laughed, cheered the group led by King, and felt sad all at the same time. Everyone was great in their portrayal of homeless and down -on-thier - luck types. Dermot Mulroney and Balthazar Getty should have got nominations for portraying King and Little J respectively. Will Smith and Peter Dobson were comic relief. However all the while the grittiness of living on the streets was reflected. A great movie is anything that could touch you in every way possible and this film does it!!! The entire cast was good. Seeing Christina Slater as a interviewer at the rehab clinic was ironic. Sean Astin showed the chops of a great actor he shows now. Alyssa Milano is visually arresting in her bit part as Kimmy. Rachel Ticotin was gorgeous as usual as the female cop. The ending was devastating more for the fact that it provided another turning point in the film.

This is my most favorite movie. It definitely draws you in, you will be enveloped by the gritty straight forward look at life on the streets. I wish more people would see this movie. It's great. You'll love it.

It bears repeating, I absolutely loved this movie! It is one of my favorite movies of all time! I admit that initially I only wanted to see it because of Balthazar Getty, but it has so many great stars! Everyone does a fabulous job. Great story and characters. I have nothing to base this on, but it seems really realistic. There is some humor and some really sad parts. The director and writer Marc Rocco gives them a lot to work with. I don't see how anyone could not like this movie. Dermot Mulroney, Balthazar Getty, Sean Astin and Lara Flynn Boyle give fantastic performances! I highly recommend this movie! It does make you appreciate what you have and makes you realize how some people, kids, can end up and what can happen to them. Awesome flick!

Each actor/actress in this film plays to perfection. As usual, Sean Astin captured my imagination, and I couldn't believe that this was the same person who played Rudy. The plot is well written, and I was captivated by how realistic it was. I could totally see this happening not only in downtown L.A., but in any other big city as well. It was made in 1992, but like Rebel Without a Cause, it stays universal.

This movie is a classic example of what a bunch of talented actors can do without being showcased. Most of the cast in this film have gone on to become bigger stars (some MUCH bigger as in the case of Will Smith) in far bigger budget movies, but they'll all have this one to look back on as something to be truly proud of. Sure, one can quibble with the fact that these people, despite being "glammed down" for the street look, are better looking than "real" homeless youths, but this is Hollywood after all. A promising feature from director Marc Rocco, who went on to make another movie, and now I haven't seen anything from him for half-a-decade. What happened?

In the beginning I wasn't really convinced about the quality of the movie. Especially the first 30 minutes weren't too special. It felt too much like a typical late eighties / early nineties movie than like an all time classic. But I have to admit that, even though it's a bit of a slow starter, it really is a good movie especially at the end. It's about a bunch of youngsters that live on the streets of L.A. trying to make a living out of stealing and begging and some occasional prostitution. You'll get a good insight on what these people's lives are like. I'm not saying that I had sympathy for them when I saw them using drugs, stealing car radio's... but at least I understood why they did it. All in all I enjoyed watching this movie. It may not be a real classic, but it sure had some potential. I give it a 7.5/10.
