Gone in 60 Seconds

The first time I saw this movie, was in my 8th grade band class. We were celebrating having finished a concert. I have seen it a few times since then; so when I saw it on TV, I decided to watch it.

While I enjoy the fast paced nature of this action movie, and the moral value of helping out family no matter what, I found myself wanting the characters to steal the cars and to kill the main villian. I don't consider that to be the best message. I do like that they make an effort to emphasize the negative outcomes of living this kind of lifestyle; but it still seems to glorify being a car thief, and possibly even give people ideas on how to steal cars.
