Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/21/25 Full Review Ken C This movie did not follow the book at all and the jumping around past to the present with out context made it very difficult to follow. If I had not read the book first I would have been completely lost Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/20/25 Full Review Jace T this film was a great example of what addiction can look like through the users eyes, the family, and loved ones affected by it. Though it's a little difficult to navigate some of the scenes because they are scattered, it still is a very touching film. David is a loving father who would do anything for his son, even if it meant trying the drug just to experience what his son is going through. This film should not be taken lightly and is a perfect realistic example of what addiction looks like from both perspectives. WE NEED MORE MOVIES LIKE THIS. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/20/25 Full Review Cami T T This movie really touched my heart, so it comes highly recommend by the critics because it is relatable for many people. The plot shows how an addict can get to the lowest point of his life by losing himself by not only hurting him but also his family. David, the father, was constantly struggling with the change of humor of his son caused by the drugs. As a consequence, he ended up feeling extremely guilty even though he shouldn't had felt that way. Beautiful boy demonstrates the reality of being an addict. When you recover, it is not linear, and relapsing is a part of the process. Nic realized how relatively easy it was to relapse, and he did it so many times that even his dad thought that it was a lost cause and stopped helping him. Not because he didn't love him, but because he also had a life, a wife and kids to take care of. I loved every second of it. The entire movie made me cry absolutely devastated like 4 different times. Totally beautiful Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/19/25 Full Review Audience Member gut wrenching movie honestly! interesting to see the pov of an addict but also the pov of loving, caring and worrying for an addict, one of my fave movies yall gotta get on this Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/25 Full Review Britney L This movie was very touching to me. I think everyone should be encouraged to watch it, as it does an amazing job portraying the constant, unstable fight that one faces during addiction. I really enjoyed getting to see things from a parent's perspective, especially since I don't have children of my own. It truly highlights the fact that addiction doesn't only affect the user, but also their loved ones, and how it impacts family dynamics. It took a while for me to finally be ready to watch this film and I am glad I did. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/03/25 Full Review Read all reviews
