Kilo is half white and half Mexican. His white mother tries to keep him away from the streets, but Kilo wants to follow in his drug dealing father's footsteps. Kilo's "anglo" looks make it easier for him to sell drugs at predominantly white high schools and colleges. Eventually he becomes a cocaine kingpin.
This isn't the best movie I've ever seen but it's not the worst, either. The worst thing about the movie (IMO) was Jennifer Tilly as the daughter of a Colombian drug dealer. OH LORD was she bad! And not bad in a funny, entertaining way, either. It was painful to watch. Why in the name of all that is holy was she cast as a Latina?!
Damian Chapa is a talented writer and director (and very easy on the eyes!). With a bigger budget (and no Tilly! :o ) this movie could have been a lot better.
