Frank Scheck Hollywood Reporter While the film doesn't break any new ground either in terms of substance or style, it packs a quiet punch. Apr 5, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member I've always like Josh Stewart. He's an underrated actor. I think he did well directing this as well. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member I decided to watch this because I noticed that Eden Brolin was in it. It was definitely worth it! Not only was her performance stellar, the story was very captivating and well executed. I won't say anything about the ending, you'll just have to see it for yourself! 😊 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Great film portraying the opiod epedemic in Appalachia. The beautiful scenery belies the ugly truth of how addiction effects families and communities. The movie draws you in gets you emotionally involved. From sadness to outrage to hope. WV is my home away from home. I've have too many friends who have had to endure family members fighting through or losing the battle to opiod addiction. An important film that should be on everyone's watch list. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member I was captivated. I felt the pain they went through, it brought tears to my eyes. Such decent people can lean on the wrong things for help, but it isn’t help, just a blanket. The acting, love, empathy shown was excellent. Was this based on a true story? Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/14/19 Full Review Read all reviews
