I was expecting something different from this movie, but I still liked it regardless. It has its funny moments, and it's well acted. The metaphor is pretty obvious, but it's still well executed. Addicts need help, they leave a wake of destruction, and it often takes something tragic to snap them out of their cycle. Overall, it's worth a watch. But it's not something I'd watch over and over again.
