Shooting Heroin

A lot of drinking in this movie. And a definite christian theme. I won't be recommending it to anyone.

Went in to this quite optimistic but as soon as I saw some of the old has beens from yesteryear and their poor acting I knew it was too good to be true. Poor old Sherilyn Fenn , I used to secretly fancy her when I was younger but sadly we all get old and our talents diminish and for her this is sadly true.

If you think this is going to be a revenge thriller akin to Death Wish vigilante style with plenty of action then forget it, this is one of those paramount wet sunday afternoon moralistic tedious goody two shoes movies for bored housewives and it will bore you to tears; that is if the dreadful acting and poor script does not finish you off first.

Yes, the acting is very meh.

Yes, there is a bit of religious meh involved.

But the 'Message' about legalized Opiod abuse is 'Very there' It is a powerful film about a small town facing an epidemic of legal drug abuse, & how the deal with it.

In my opinion the Big farma may ( tinfoil hat time ) negatively rate this low budget, throw away rental True(ish) story.

I was waiting for something to happen but nothing does a total waste of time!

It's badly acted, directed, everything Fenn seems to touch is god awful, as I expected. Lead character is the type of generic actor that had the looks, but just missed out on a role on the bold and the beautiful due to the Corona Virus shut down. The camera angles choices were often odd, and not in a good way, the storyline races thru certain important scenes, sits forever on other longer boring scenes, like at the bar, or chatting while fishing...it just never gets remotely interesting...sister dying of heroin, 2 scenes = 3min. Having a cigarette in he smoking area = 8 minutes and counting. Sorry i cant sum up the whole load of excrement, but I couldn't get thru it...avoid avoid and avoid.
