Maybe it's because I'm from the Midwest, maybe it's because I'm a weak man, maybe it's because I tried to save a drug attic but I loved Elliot's character. He's more everyman than most characters that try to be. Yes, there are some people who don't know that kicking heroine makes you sick, dress poorly and genuinely care for someone they foolishly think they can save. As for the ending I thought it was wonderful. It doesn't wrap everything up in a bow but gives hope. Elliot is confronting grief instead of running away Andrea has walked a way instead of taking advantage of those around her. I also felt the movie was much more realistic than a lot of more glamorized drug movies. In a weird way it made me nostalgic of my life before cleaning up. I wonder what acquaintances of mine made it out and am so sorry for the Elliot's I met along the way who didn't. I do agree that the music was horrible and Elliot's mom was a weak point that's what happens when you have no budget.

oh and i've seen dogs doin it better watch it
