Am I Missing Something?

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

Wow!! I've never sat through out a movie anticipating next move and with a bundle of nerves before. There is never a dull moment and your heart will beat out of your chest in a lot of places. Acting is top notch and lighting and camera work is awesome. The rerecording is the heart of the movie and it is extremely impressive. Never look for any other movie if you want to see a original edge of a seat thriller, you will not be disappointed. I'm not going to give out any details , although if you see the trailer you will get a fair picture of what you can expect. I luckily came across sneak previews and thoroughly enjoyed what has been offered. For the fans, DO NOT MISS THIS MOVIE AT ANY COST! I've watched it in the theater and I'm also going to buy a Blue Ray copy when it's out so that everything i spend is contributed to movies like this.

It's your loss if you haven't watched Alcoholist yet or decide against it! I think nobody could portray the tribulations of being an alcoholic better than Bret Roberts. The barbarous lifestyle of alcoholist Daniel is bound to raise awareness against alcoholism. A mercurial story leading to a thought-provoking conclusion deserves your complete attention. The overly dramatic parts of this film, like that one father son scene, could be toned down. The set designing was very impressive. The alcoholist's neighbour's family didn't look like one but two adults and a child playing family. Gabriella Wright's unintelligible character mystified the film by taking up the responsibility of ridding the alcoholist of his true vicious addiction. A few scenes seemed necessarily repetitious yet monotonous at the same time. Apart from the brilliant lead, John Robinson's performance was noteworthy.

I don't know...If I were to read the script, I would say this movie would have a lot of potential. The actors are great, but the main lead behaves nothing like an alcoholic. His house is too clean, his body too well kept. His behavior is so unconform a drinker, I cringed. He acts more like a schizophrenic - a better title fit. The alcohol is emphasized, but a moot plot point and a sales pitch, leading to nothing. The therapy is extraordinary and senseless. The killing of his neighbor seems almost like a coincidental story, and that will leave you unsatisfied. In fact, all plot points are. The 'supernatural' visions are of no matter, and nothing is done with them, nor is it ever explained. Didn't like the CGI. They should have dropped it. Didn't like the ending. It was more of a 'situation' than a finale.This could easily have been the next 'the guest' with the plot idea. A stranger nearby with an aura of mystery and a mental condition, contemplating to kill - but believe me, if you want to kill somebody, you don't really go all out and buy the solitary house next door to make yourself the only suspect. Plenty of things just don't feel right with this one.Rating: 5.5/10

The lead character renders a real portrayal of a real alcoholic. The acting is good to the point that you are forced to wonder if they got a real alcoholic to act in the movie! The support characters' performances are OK and 'almost' there. There is an overall darkness in the movie without any redeeming qualities. There appears to be an attempt to portray the obsessions, or the hidden darkness, of people with addictions and the people without. But this aspect is not made clear, or explored. I personally had an uncle who was never sober. He died when he was 42 years old from severe liver damage from alcoholism. That said, this movie perhaps tries to be a deterrent to viewers taking up the bottle. I don't see the point. I am not sure if it is effective in that message either. The bottle is taken up, even as this movie acknowledges, as a method of slow suicide. A brokenhearted or suicidal person taking to the bottle has already stopped caring about oneself or others, there is no real message or redemption in the movie. I felt that the movie took something away, my time, my desire to understand, and so on. The movie gave nothing. No entertainment, no real message. It left me depressed and regretting watching the movie. Hence only 4 stars. Just a fair warning.
