DRAMA
Memories are tricky. With luck, more good than bad stays with you. Writer-director Dito Montiel remembers it all. In this autobiographical film based on his 2001 memoir, an adult Dito (Downey Jr.) recognizes that he must come to terms with his troubled past to get on with his life, so he takes an impressionistic tour back through his teen years growing up poor in Queens, N.Y. The young Dito (LaBeouf) hangs with rowdy pals (including Tatum), feuds with his dad and finds solace with a caring mom (Wiest). Saints is wildly uneven, but it does include sensitive performances by Downey, Tatum and Wiest. (R)
