Powerful anti-drug movie

Rating: 7/10 (20 March 1999)

A powerful anti-drug movie which comes close to brilliance. Because it remains fairly one-track (drugs) it never quite lifts itself from very good to very special.
But ... as a movie about the terrors of hard drug addiction I can think of no equal. The treatment of the subject matter is outstanding, and in many ways a MUST SEE for teenagers.
