Bobby LePire Film Threat Withdrawal could well be the best film about addiction and getting clean since Requiem For A Dream Rated: 10/10 May 7, 2025 Full Review Rebecca Johnson Film Focus Online Superbly acted and jarringly raw and realistic to the core, Withdrawal offers a harsh look at drug addiction through expert filmmaking. Rated: 3.5/5 May 7, 2025 Full Review Pramit Chatterjee Film Fugitives Withdrawal is a romantic drama about a pair of recovering drug addicts, but I think that it can pass as a horror movie as well. Rated: 4.5/5 May 3, 2025 Full Review Morgan Rojas Cinemacy Aaron Strand’s involvement as director, writer, and editor elevates Withdrawal into more than just an entertainment piece, but a heartbreaking yet hopeful survivor’s story about addiction and recovery. May 2, 2025 Full Review Jonathan W. Hickman The Newnan Times-Herald The film is an unflinching look at heroin addiction that acts as an excellent cautionary tale.
