This film not only gives viewers a glimpse on two warring gangs but also conveys a spiritual message of forgiveness and repentance.  Acting portrayals are commendable with the actors portraying the characters of Joe and the priest as the ones that really stood out.  A particular scene where the priest is giving a sermon was, I think, a central part of the film and it tries to make sense to what is going on between these gangs. Despite of all the wrongdoings, the movie ended with the notion that bad deeds will never prosper and the bloody end of the gang members was a desolate scene to witness.  There's much blood and too much hatred among the characters and the greed/ love for money was evident in these gangs.
