After making her name in "The Princess Diaries", Anne Hathaway takes a radical detour with this edgy independent drama. As Allie, a wealthy gangsta wannabe, she makes no excuses for her delinquent behavior: "We're just teenagers and we're bored." When her Pacific Palisades posse, including pal Emily ("Bully"'s Bijou Phillips), starts hanging out with a Latino gang (including "Six Feet Under"'s Freddy Rodríguez), they learn what thug life is really about. Hathaway couldn't be more game: She swears, she fights--she disrobes (several times). Written and directed by Oscar winners Stephen Gaghan ("Traffic") and Barbara Kopple ("American Dream"), "Havoc" plays like a B movie, in the vein of the superior "crazy/beautiful", and was released straight to video. For Hathaway fans, it's a chance to see this young talent in a "very" different light, but for Gaghan and Kopple followers, this lurid morality tale is sure to come as a letdown. "--Kathleen C.
