Affiliation
The movie relates that the members of La Onda grew up in Southern California (East Los Angeles), and with that, they would have no association with Nuestra Familia.
In the movie, the fictional gang reffered to as La Onda is in direct reference to the real California prison gang known as "La Eme" i.e. the Mexican Mafia and NOT the Nuestra familia. Being that the characters in the movie grew up in the Pico Aliso/East Los Angeles area of southern California, it would be fair to say that they are "Sureños" (southern chicano gang members) and thus would become members of La Eme, which consists of gang members originating from Southern California.

synopsis
Someone decided to add a few sentences to the first paragraph of the synopsis. Someone with more knowledge of the plot should fix it, or remove those entirely.206.45.150.119 (talk) 01:44, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
I am new to uploading pictures, but I really felt that this movie page needed a poster. If I have done anything wrong (i.e. I can't put that there), please try to figure out a way to have a poster on the page. Thanks.
False Content
Hi Everybody. I read in the article that due to the plot summary, The Aryan Vanguard is run by the caracter "Big Al". That is false. Big Al is not even a member of the gang. It is run by the caracter "Red Ryder". May I change that?
This is true. Montana even has to placate Big Al to call off the hit on Miklo (foosball table scene). Big Al was not in charge of the AVs, he just was an important member because he ran the prison book. 72.250.160.130 (talk) 19:59, 28 May 2009 (UTC)

Old Enemies?
It may be pure trivia, but I think it bears mentioning somewhere in the article that Magic Mike, who becomes Miklo's lieutenant and confidant, was a member of Tres Puntos, Spider's Gang. It makes Miklo's very unlikely ascension to the top of La Onda that much more surprising. 72.250.160.130 (talk) 20:02, 28 May 2009 (UTC)
Gang Affiliation, pt 2
The movie loosely relates to many actual gangs but the entire sub-plot that discusses the gangs is purely fictional. The information we get about all of the gangs and affiliations are all cliche's.
If the movie was realistic then, yeah, the guys should have been identified as Surenos since they grow up in the Los Angeles area.
