I didn't think the film was awful, I just think some of the messaging was unclear and some stories fell short of meaning and direction. The first story that dealt with mental health and drug addiction was based on a true story and was well acted, in my opinion. If you know anything about this topic, you'll know there will be plenty of drama, that's a given. The other stories, some also based on actual events, were delivered adequately enough, as I remembered most of the stories long after the film was over. I thought the worst was the last story, which was animated, I didn't think it was a good fit.

I did like the song "Applause" which was nominated for an Oscar however, my pick is RRR's Naatu Naatu.

It's amazing what people in financial woes can cook up to get free of debt. Sugar Mountain centers on 4 people. 2 brothers, 1 girl and a cop. Both brothers are in love with the same girl who is the cop's daughter. The three cook up a scheme to change reate a story of rescue and preserverence while being lost in the Alaskan wilderness. However, the cop is on to them - his pursuit is ruthless. There are so many twist (lies) and turns (lies gone bad) you can hardly keep up. Even the ruthless cop has dirty secrets. Watching the lies unfold can be exciting to some, so it's safe to say this movie isn't for everyone. I for one, liked it. The acting was good, especially Jason Momoa as Joe Bright. Check it out.
