They have great points to make and if the movie really “showed” that, well, there wouldn’t be a need for this making of. The special features for Alpha Dog consist of eleven minutes of the actors talking about what the film was supposed to be about. Alpha Dog is worth a quick look if the kids or stoners are in bed but no promises it won’t be alpha doggie do-do.

There’s a reason why Lifetime is able to crank these films out and it’s not because they’re high quality made for TV movies. While Alpha Dog isn’t completely horrible, there are a few good moments (Sharon Stone at the end is awesome) and some one liners, it in no way does the story of this kidnapped boy justice and if his real life parents saw this film they would be ashamed of what was done to his memory. If more of the movie followed them or at least followed their lead in actually developing the characters before putting them on the F parade, then this would have been a better picture. The only real constants of the film are Justin Timberlake and Anton Yelchin (the stolen boy). Likewise the bulk of the “known” actors in Alpha Dog play minor, barely seen roles. For instance, the character of Elvis seems prominent from the beginning and then disappears until the end of the film. Some of the cast even seem to float in and out of the story. It’s one two-hour long news reel that forgets to look from the inside. The movie follows the event, the news story, but forgets to follow the characters or focus in too closely to give motives or build characterization. The story that comes from the film is a fine one that tests limits and show bonds being made and broken. If there was some more tweaking on the script side of things these young boys could have looked less like posers and more like gangsters. There’s not a single grammatical reason to use the F-bomb more than twice in one sentence, and these guys are spitting them out like watermelon seeds. Where are the Doritos? The half-burnt bags of popcorn? And the guy/girl that suddenly wants to cook a feast in the middle of it all with their only prerequisite being the bag of popcorn? Wait, they’re not potheads at all, they’re actors reading lines verbatim and sprinkling them with “crazy” ad libs that must be inside jokes.

For portrayed potheads they sure are uptight, and full of energy, and anxiety, and have their own houses. It’s the written dialogue that doesn’t fit. They’re full of emotion, drama, intensity, and movement their actions and facial expressions are wonderful. What’s tough with Alpha Dog is that the actors really are good at acting.
