I truly believe that, in the end, Garfield got through to them. That their way of life is garbage. Tragically, people like César had broken him to the point where, despite Garfield having the message to change them, he no longer had the drive to do so. We see that he got through to them via Stevie graduating and Paco seemingly leaving the gang life. It's sad. Especially since in Cesar's case, there was no father in the home. How different his life might have been if there actually was a father in his home. So it's not just the gang life that is bullshit.....

[@diabdia]

I hope that kids in the mid 90s saw this and changed their life around. So much pain and despair back then for all of them.

the last scene kinda consternating, i live in a poor southeast asian country, and the film just reflects life in urban and suburban areas of my country.

Many of them just leave house at night and gather with their friends just to rob and murder people who go home from night shifts, they embrace the gang life, all about killing and banging.
