This film is a wannabe Requiem for a Dream, with the difference being that the story of In My Pocket was written by people who know nothing about anything. To give one example, it shows a girl who was injected with an unknown drug just once and became so addicted to it she was still in rehab 5 years later having extreme craving. The film tries to present a serious subject matter, but ends up being a mishmash of clichés put together in a less than bright or informed manner. The main audience for this is people who will swallow nonsense and laud it as educational provided it vilifies drugs and at least superficially resembles reality. Even if you disregard the contrived nature of some story elements and the general lack of understandable motivation for the character's actions, parts of the film feature sub-par acting, like the main character's father trying and failing to give a strict appearance. This is one of the rare films whose lack of redeeming qualities has made me regret watching it.

All around bad movie , from script to the acting to the writing .

Can't believe it won any kind of audience choice award. I also can't believe its rated as high as it is , even allowing for the cast and crew to have all voted it up. I expect that probably accounts for about half the votes though , so at about 6.9 without them voting your probably looking at a movie that's actually rated about 5.0 or so.

This movie started off with some promise technically but as it moved along it actually continually surprised me with each new unbelievable turn of plot , phony character , or contrived emotion. The cartoon characters in rehab , the awful forced romantic relationship, cripes.. I know something of addiction and rehab myself and it really did an EXCEPTIONALLY poor job of portraying either experience with any degree of authenticity.

What were these guys taking peyote? Why did his fairly well to do parents put their ""on his way to med school" kid in some kind of rehab that was like a state mental ward ? I could pick it apart more here but whats the point of kicking someone when their down. Don't waste your time...
