An important film

Rating: 9/10 (25 September 2004)

This film is strange, dark, and disturbing. And it is one of my favorite movies.
This movie has no redeeming qualities but that is because there is nothing redeeming about drug abuse. This truly is the ultimate anti drug film.
It also boastes incredible performances form Ellen Burstyn, Jared Leto, Jennifer Conelley, and believe it or not Marlone Wayans.
By no means is this movie for anyone that is younger than their teen years. But every teenager should see this film, along with every adult, after seeing this no one in their right mind would even be tempted by drugs.
The cinamatografy is unique and entertaining, the story is compelling and powerful, and the acting is superb. Easily 9/10
