Scott verloor zijn vader op zevenjarige leeftijd en haalt zich sinds zijn tienerjaren voortdurend problemen op de hals. Nu in de twintig brengt hij zijn tijd door met drugs, hangt hij wat rond met zijn vrienden en papt sporadisch aan met een jeugdvriendin. Wanneer zijn moeder begint te daten met een luidruchtige brandweerman, het beroep dat zijn vader tevens beoefende, zet dit een kettingreactie in gang.
Ja! de film The King of Staten Island is nu beschikbaar om te kijken op Netflix in Nederland.
