Ryan Lattanzio indieWire Perhaps the most fascinating aspect of this shallow movie is left unexplored: why doesn't Deb look in the mirror at her role in Molly's addiction? Rated: C May 12, 2021 Full Review Richard Roeper Chicago Sun-Times Mila Kunis does her finest acting work alongside Glenn Close... Rated: 3/4 May 1, 2021 Full Review Angie Han FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles) It is a couple of good performances in a movie that feels like we have seen it a thousand times before. May 1, 2021 Full Review Brittany Patrice Witherspoon Pop Culture Reviews If you’re looking for a script that refuses to settle for the banal and pushes the boundaries in representing addiction, there are plenty of better films.

Mary Lou True life, how one suffering from substance abuse lose everything to the disease. It takes over the mind. The family struggles, disconnects, separate get mad, fear don't understand and blame themselves. Think its their fault they are that way. Family need supports and never lose hope. Because miracles can happen. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 05/24/21 Full Review Peggy Z Could have had a more dramatic ending. Mila Kunis was very believable in her role.
