When I first saw this, I thought it was deep. Then I turned twenty.

Rating: 1/10 (8 September 2017)

This film reminds me of "Catcher in the Rye" being one of those things that seem incredibly important and original when you are fifteen or so, and then totally silly as soon as you grow up. Yes, big, Big, BIG tragedy. OOOOH...the drug world. Yes, drugs are bad. Well, for the most part drugs are bad. So is unprocessed sugar. Judging by the size of the average buttock in America and the UK, people need to worry a whole lot more about how much they eat then drugs as far as health is concerned. I wonder if in its time people saw "reefer madness" a film where a gifted young man with a dream ends up in jail, and his girlfriend in a mental ward, all because they smoked a joint, and reacted just like people did to this film. Lets look at this thing objectively; Point 1)This movie seems to miss is the purpose of bail. You do not actually need to post the entire amount. Also, you get all of that money BACK as soon as the person in question appears at the trial date. The state doesn't KEEP bail money. Its not a fine. Its collateral. Point 2) And possibly the DUMBEST thing in the film is how Harry and Tyrone are arrested because a doctor saw the signs of drug use. What exactly are they arrested for? It is NOT illegal to be a drug user. Its only illegal to possess drugs. It doesn't matter if you use them or not. What are they charged with? Track marks? Possessing money? Driving? I mean honestly. The message of the film is if you use drugs you will fail at everything you try to accomplish, loose your limbs and your mind. OK, I applaud the attempt to keep people away from dangerous substances, but making up nonsense scenarios to do it is just lame.
