Wanna-be art; really just crap

Rating: 3/10 (12 July 2001)

This film looks like something that could have been commissioned by Nancy Reagan's "just say no to drugs" people. Simplistic and heavy handed, this is the sort of moralistic tripe you'd expect from a police visit to your high school classroom.
SPOILER Read this paragraph only if you've seen the movie:
Synopsis (just to remind you how stupid this is) "Innocent fun among "normal kids" leaves a guy crippled, his buddy in jail, his girlfriend a crack whore and his mom lobotomized. It's all because of ... gasp ... DRUGS. Drugs are bad, mmmmkay?" /SPOILER
Jesus, do Americans know nothing about making a movie with some SUBTLETY?
It's time for a "drugs are mystical and great when used with care" movie get rid of the bad taste this movie leaves behind.
