    Holy sh**!

    I had a close family member who was deeply into drugs and thinks it should be shown in every high school.

    I finally got a round to watching it yesterday...all I have to say is WOW. I definitely will never do drugs.

    I have another close family member who is just like the mother in the movie...it was crazy how real that movie is.

    Shane had me watch that movie with him. It was a very startling movie. Definitely should be shown to high school juniors and seniors.

    More like freshman...I found it very shocking when my family member told me the drug problem when he was just starting school...he was 15 when he started, and he said 50% of his class was also using regularly, 70% at least tried it on occasion. I'm talking heroine, crack, and acid here, not pot.

    yep, this is a kickass movie, and i especially love the string quartet score. Nice to see a Wayans bro. in a serious role for change. And you can't lose with Jennifer Connelly either. :D

    I thought it was totally fucking overdone. BUt it was funny. That old man screaming 'ass to ass' while holding up the double dong is one of the funniest scenes in any movie, ever.

    Better (more realistic) Drug Addict movies:

    Drugstore Cowboy.
    Another Day in Paradise.
    Permanent Midnight
    Jesus' Son.

    Is Jesus' Son the one with Jack Black and they steal the wires out of old houses? Excellant movie.
