A movie about the punk scene in salt Lake City in the 80's. Also goes into some ideals of being an Anarchist.. A kickass movie any aspiring young punk should watch but dont base urself on this movies to be a punk. Because remember being punk is all about being urself not fuckin following some damn fashion or listening to a certain music type to be trendy and cool only posers to that fuckin posers godamn they need to die...
Steve-o:The thing with me and Bob and pretty much all of us was we hated red necks more than anything else period because rednecks to us were pretty much america incarnates and america well FUCK AMERICA!!!

SLC Punk! Is a movie about 2 punks, Heroin Bob and Steve-O, who are 2 of the few punks in Salt Lake City in 1985. The movie shows you that when you dress like a punk to be independent you really are not because you are just wearing a uniform and not being independent.
"You see life is like that. We change, that's all. You see, the guy I am now is not the guy I was then. If the guy I was then met the guy I am now he'd beat the shit out of me. Those are the facts."

An amazing movie in the form of a doccumentary about the lives of 2 young Punks growing up in Salt Lake City(SLC). The story shows how Stevo and Heroin Bob live being some of the few "true punks" in SLC.
SLC PUNK:
Stevo: Wait, time out. I just wanted to ask real quick, if I can. You believe in rebellion, freedom and love, right?
Mom: Absolutely, yes.
Dad: Rebellion, freedom, love.
Stevo: You two are divorced. So love failed. Two: Mom, your a New Ager, clinging to every scrap of Eastern religion that may justify why the above said love failed. Three: Dad, you're a slick, corporate, preppy-ass lawyer. I don't really have to say anything else about you do I dad? Four: You move from New York City, the Mecca and hub of the cultural world to Utah! Nowhere! To change nothing! More to perpetuate this cycle of greed, fascism and triviality. Your movement of the people, by and for the people got you... nothing! You just hide behind some lost sense of drugs, sex and rock and roll. Ooooh, Kumbaya! I am the future! I am the future of this great nation which you, father, so arrogantly saved this world for. Look, I have my own agenda. Harvard, out. University of Utah, in. I'm gonna get a 4.0 in damage. I love you guys! Don't get me wrong, it's all about this. But for the first time in my life, I'm 18 and I can say "FUUUUUCK YOU!"

To be an anarchist in Salt Lake City was certainly no easy task, especially in 1985. And having no money, no job, no plans for the future, the true anarchist position was in itself a strenuous job.

A great movie that inspires young punks/anarchist to be True and not wear pink and black arm-bands,dye thier hair pink, and say they skateboard...and spikes

Wow.. What can I say about SLC Punk? Well, for starters, it's a great movie that alomst anyone can relate to and/or get into. Not exactly appropriate for those under the age of 12, but hey, fuck your parents;; Watch it anyway.
Oh, and you, yeah you. The guy who's named "no" or whatever gay-ass name that is. You think that SLC Punk is a movie that kids don't get? Well fuck you man! I'm 14, and I've seen the movie 10 gillion times, and I own it. Oh, and you think that the movie will only "inspire" kids to get a mohawk and drink beer because it's "punk-rock"? Where the hell are you coming from? I fucking hate the taste of beer, and yeah, I've thought about getting a mohawk, but that was way before I saw the movie, buddy.
