Sarah McMullan Stuff.co.nz Ok, so there are a few melodramatic steps in between that may make the more mature viewer smirk, but it kept the two teens I trialled this Lifetime movie on interested to the very end, and they certainly took the right message away from it.

Audience Member Can't stand to see Bella Thornes face or any part of her for that matter. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member I appreciated the attempt to educate kids on the slippery slope abusing prescriptions can create. So often, every show is about sensationalizing bad behaviour. Kids need more shows like this so they can learn something from their hours of screen time. It is a made for TV movie and shouldn't be expected to be a blockbuster. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member I liked this movie for the most part, but I wish some of the acting would have been better. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member this is a tear jerking and real to life film would watch again Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Something similar happened to my brother, so this hit close to home. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/28/23 Full Review Audience Member A cautionary tale about the abuse of painkillers, Perfect High definitely exceeded my expectations. I truly anticipated this being the worst film I would ever watch, but it was actually pretty engaging and serves as a good warning to the target audience about the trappings of drugs, which is a good cause. The acting, writing, and direction, are all incredibly poor, however. There are also many better films that showcase the downfall of addiction (Trainspotting and Requiem for a Dream come to mind), but as the teen version of those films, this one does hit the same themes and serves its purpose. Taken as a warning against drug use, this one is not that bad. I would not recommend it, but if you are forced into watching it, you could do far worse.
