After years and years of hearing how groundbreaking this movie was I finally gave in and saw it. I went in with high expectations, hoping that it would be a more serious version of trainspotting. That is, it would really look at addiction and declare something other than drugs is bad. Well, I might have missed something because the movie I saw was exclusively 2 hours of drugs is bad. The story isn't believable, the characters are stupid at best and frustrating at worst. Stop being mean to your mom, that is one of the sure fire ways to get everyone to hate you. Also, just because you are a whore in real life doesn't mean you have to whore yourself out for junk in the movie you are in. I'm sorry but if you go into a hospital and your arm is completely eroding away you will get some medical help. The main idiot getting his arm chopped off was the last straw in a serious of ludacris events.
That's it for details, I'll let our friends at IMDB do a proper review. Just look at this story and stop me if you've heard it before. Group of friends starts off as casual users, turn into junkies, bad things happen. Thats the movie, thats it, someone actually thought that was enough of a story to fill an entire movie. I guess I'm spoiled by watching good movies, but I don't understand why every drug movie has to be this, traffic, or harsh times.
