Yoiur review shocked me to say the least. This film is a both powerful and thought provocing, depicting with great development and style the spiral of drug abuse can have. I thought the performance and transformation of the mother was real enough to be oscar worthy. To say that the montages are repetitive is a style and if you don't have the patience or the capacity to understand the progression of the sequences as the increase in intensity I ask, why be a film critic. Maybe its because its not typical Hollywood linear sequences that you do not understand it, in which case go buy your popcorn and coke and watch something 'proper' films, such as fast and furious, so you can let turn your brain off and let the film mouth food you shallow plot lines.
Enough said.

Yeah I think it is a poor review. I think the critic%u2019s main gripe with the movie is its inevitability, in being a downward spiral. But why does the fact that we know exactly where the film is going have to ruin it? The writer looks towards the camera work and cinematic effects for a way of making the film "feel better" to watch... to allow them to critique it. But it's not necessary as you're supposed to feel awkward and god awful through the whole thing. Not everyone%u2019s cup of tea - I'll grant you... but what an impact it makes. Right to the core. Oh yeah - and I think the camera work was excellent. (Just my 2cents however).

A bad acid trip is EXTREMELY enlightening if you're only smart enough to pay attention

The worst thing about this and every drug movie I've seen is that it says and knows nothing about drugs. It couldn't even get its facts right. The eyes do NOT dilate with heroin use,they do the opposite. I wish these phoney filmakers would do their research properly and stop presenting us with their second-hand representations of what they think something is like. It's worse than a bad acid trip,it's a pretentious movie-makers ego-trip.
