Reviews for Less Than Zero
It may not be the most realistic portrayal of drug addiction ever produced, but it’s certainly worth seeing – if for nothing else than Downey’s superlative performance.

The only saving grace of this exercise in futility is the suitably louche performance by Spader as drug-dealer Rip.

Jami Gertz was, is, and ever shall be one of the most egregious actresses in the history of film.
