      don s This drama was painfully slow. Just a typical movie about an alcoholic mother who is so wrapped up in herself she doesn't see the destruction she has caused in her daughter's life. The daughter basically must reverse roles and parent her parent. Didn't care about any of the characters - none of them touched my heart. Poorly executed story. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member AMAZING MOVIE!!!!!!!!!!!! You must be able to relate or empathize. If you cannot do either...jump! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member An amateur production from top to bottom. Weak script, stagnant acting, and directed and shot like episodic television. Exterior push-ins? Really? Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member If you like tear jerkers, this one is for you. If you have ever dealt with suicide, this one is for you. I hate tear jerkers but this is one film that is outstanding. It was genuine and not unrealistic like a lot of movies. this movie is true to what people go through living with an alcoholic and/or dealing with suicide. The acting in this movie was fantastic. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member Another story of the kid being the parent and the parent being the kid. The dialogue is uninteresting but I was drawn in for some reason. There's nothing about this movie that really makes it stand out and the ending is way too abrupt. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review roger g Emily's mom runs away from life and stops in Vegas to find another which is just a bad as the one she left because she chooses to make it that way. It affects her daughter who has tried to help her but is unable to stop the drunkenness. So, after her mom commits suicide, Emily starts down the same path, but stops short of death. A teen movie about teens, for teens, with teens, who have a horrible life, so they think, because their parent has a horrible life. If you've got nothing else to do, watch this time waster.
