Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Went into this with pretty high hopes and honestly the first half hour made me a bit weary. I thought i was going to be extremely disappointed. But from the half hour mark until the very end, this movie was real, raw, and honest. This is the first time I have heard of Dan Eberle, although he does look familiar, and he did an incredible job at portraying his emotions and confusion about where his place in life is. I always have an immense amount of respect for people who can write, direct, and star in the same movie. The acting from each character didn't come off as strong or over the top. In fact, it didn't seem like acting at all, it was very natural. Happy to say that I was impressed with this film, and I'm very glad that I watched it. Great underlying story of the importance of family, the support needed to be clean, and how we can go out of our way to help others that are in worse shape than ourselves.

I was bored with Hollywood fare and began looking for something different. This is the perfect example to keep you excited on a Sunday. I was totally engrossed in the movie. I was once beset with hard times, picked myself up and this is the part I relate to most in the movie. But that road is long and hard. Thank the lord my path to success was not the same one this character had to follow. The Director portrayed the route perfectly. The characters look like they are straight out of my personal nightmare. I cannot imagine anyone not enjoying this movie. It was powerful. Some of the actors look like they are coming direct from the streets. You simply cannot predict your own feelings at the end of this movie. Everything in this movie is a metaphor. I cannot wait to see more movies with the main character, the writers and the director. Absolutely a great movie made on a small budget. Amazing!

Script is boring, characters undeveloped, plot unimaginative, anticlimactic, horrible camera affects, and just all-around waste of time...unless it was someones homework assignment...then I'd give em a D+...But since this was actually written, directed, and produced into this mess and then put out into the world for others to view...then I must say that Dan Eberle,you are an epic failure! Steer clear of this film that should have been put out in the garbage...There is some brief full-frontal female nudity, but not long enough, nor satisfying enough, to warrant any amount of the time spent suffering through this junk.

The story is overly simplistic and melodramatic, like some slightly better than after-school teen film.I.e., yet another boring inner city drug drama.Impressive technically, but little more. The acting is all impressive (excluding Eberle who is also the writer and would have been better off writing himself a cameo role). The score, soundtrack, and filming all help make the film tolerable. Hopefully everyone except Eberle will get better films to be in from now on.So what do you watch instead? Gamer has some similar sub-story lines and written into a more interesting film overall.
