good movie

Rating: 9/10 (7 August 2005)

Parents: if you want your kids to avoid cocaine (as all people should), have them watch this movie!! Even though Johnny Depp is one goofy bastard in real life, he is a great actor and does a great job in this movie. This movie will also give you parents a flashback to the eighties in more ways than one. Pee Wee Herman and Bobcat Goldwait ( I probably spelled that wrong) are both in this movie. It shows a good portrayal of how people on cocaine think, and how they will do anything to stay on it (I've seen similar acts in two of my friends). For you flower child parents, you can re-live the old days with a great soundtrack! The most amazing thing is that it is based on a true story. This movie makes you really feel badly for the main character (George Jung). You can tell that he is a loving father, but drugs control his life. The real George Jung is still in jail as far as I know to this day. Point of the story parents: be strict with your children!! Like the commercials say, ask questions (where, with who, what, and when). Like I've seen with friends in the past, once they try cocaine, it's all over!! Please take this to heart!!
