Trivia

The characters guess at the price of a bottle of 62 year old Macallan Scotch, which Jason is revealed to have opened unknowingly; in fact, Macallan put up a special run of their 62 year old, with the price starting at $25,000. However, it was bottled in special Lalique decanters, and would not be mistaken for run of the mill Scotch, even regular Macallan.

Cool Idea

The first 45 minutes are so it's pretty boring, but it does get somewhat better. The ending sucks, but I think the movie does an overall good job of what's trying to accomplish. Even though the characters didn't have too much depth I still think the makers made their point about drug use and loss of inhibition. I just wish the party scenes had been a more detailed so that we can see exactly what all the drug was supposed to have done.
