Really, it is just a drug movie

Rating: 6/10 (7 April 2012)

Your dealer gives you a drug, it makes you feel awesome, you want more, you would do anything to get more, everyone wants your stash, you are desperate, people are trying to kill you, and you end up a complete addict.
The only twists here are that:
#1- The drug really does make the user smarter and more productive
and
#2- Through some miracle, the addict managed to maintain all the benefits of the drug yet none of the side effects, by tapering down off of the drug.
This is a drug movie. I am not a big fan of drug movies. This drug movie just happens to have some great actors in the cast who do their jobs rather well. But, in the end, it is still just a drug movie.
