Audience Member The story may not be the most inspired, but it is engaging. The one thing that really bugs me though is the "original music" which is a series of blatant rip-offs of other, legitimately good music from the era. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member A peculiar drug-rush movie! The mentor- newbie bond is extremely well portrayed by our two main characters. they get carried away in their high habbit, eventually stranding on shooting hero (what's worse!). The background of our lad keeps the intrest high on his side, comensating it with the drugs. therefor the titel 'broken vessel' as in they don't learn. The escapades our two medics embark on are pretty entertaining and far out!

Over the edge and out of control...Where the hell did BROKEN VESSELS come from? This film is everything Scorcese's "Bringing Out The Dead" promised to deliver - but didn't. My brother sent me a DVD saying "This is the best Indie film of that year." The art work on the cover was dreadful. It looked like a stupid B horror film. The back of the thing had some awards listed and kudos for the actors... What a ride! Who is Scott Ziehl? Who is Susan Traylor? And who is Todd Field? Field should have been nominated for this performance. I can only guess that the film went straight to video. Too bad more people won't see it. The film accurately depicted the decline of two young men into self delusion and drug abuse. Far better (dare I say) than "Trainspotting."

Great pace, believable situations, good supporting cast. The score is very nice, good editing and the overall direction is right on target. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Obvious symbolism and pretentiousness aside, this is one boring film. Though it was cool to see William Smith (the white one) in a film again. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Attempts to makes a quieter but deeper impression than Bringing Out the Dead, but is weighted down by conventional morality and predictable storytelling.
