Why isn't Love Is The Drug in theaters?, 19 November 2008
10/10
Author: lavbach from United States

Why aren't more teen films true to life like Love Is The Drug? We can all relate to being the new kid and considered a geek. Trying to be accepted and wanting to be accepted by the "popular" crowd - usually the wrong crowd. Falling for that unobtainable person. Fear of being rejected. I love the twist - this is what makes this film even more interesting. No, I won't tell you what it is, just trust me - it's great! Parents should watch this film, too. This will help you remember what it was like being a teenager. Not only is the story good, but they picked the perfect cast, so believable! The actor who played Jonah played him so true that I am sure if not yourself, you will remember someone like him when you were in High School! Why isn't this in theaters?
