Movie Reviews of Addiction
Movie Review: At last....
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a long overdue documentary. It's phenomenal in that it covers almost every aspect of addiction there is including the ER perspective and the challenges with health insurance.
As a healthcare professional, I am frequently astounded by the response I receive when I ask patients what they have lost as a result of their addiction. While the responses range from jobs to cars and money, the room often becomes a lot quieter when the responses include children, families and identity. - This documentary hits on those difficult issues and several others which are present today and continue to present challenges for patients, families and healthcare providers. There is a long way to go - this documentary is a nice step forward.
Movie Review: Frank A. -- Sober Alcoholic
Summary: 5 Stars
Fantastic. I have been sober for 7 years. As an alcoholic in recovery I have read and studied an awful lot about this topic. Unlike any single item I've read, listened to, or watched this documentary covers this disease from every angle. When clean and sober we addicts don't ask for sympathy just understanding. This documentary shows how those we affected need the same. If you are having a problem or are a family member; please get this and watch it. If you are in the health field or a friend of someone in trouble; please get this and watch it. I you feel like alcoholics should just have a couple and stop; please get this and watch it. What a great job they did educating us all on this disease. Thank you guys for such a great job!Movie Review: very useful and informative
Summary: 5 Stars
I recently discovered that my sister was a drug addict and have been floundering looking for good information. This film and the shorts that accompany it have been a real education. The premise that addiction is a disease of the brain is very useful for family members attempting to deal with the pain and stigma of having an addict in the family. The sections on treatment are useful and i hope will give us something to go on. i'm hoping my sister will watch this film too. The documentary is sciency and medical and not at all judgemental or sensationalist. I recommend it to anyone who needs no nonsense explanations of what is addiction, what is recovery, what treatments are available etc.Movie Review: Addiction 2007
Summary: 5 Stars
I personally found the 'Addiction 4-Disc Set' as an excellent link to the mysteries and stigmas associated with addictions of varying order - or disorder! I found questions asked over and over with regard to my own addiction - that no, one professional could answer. I would recommend this series be available everywhere possible and repeated on television for educational purposes and to help those that may be desperately seeking their own answers! Addiction The 'Addiction' Series could also be a life-saver for those treading on unknown ground!Movie Review: america's struggle
Summary: 5 Stars
this is an incredibly powerful documentary that looks at addiction from many different angles. it's about time light has been shed on the subject- light that can burn anyone and then fade out before you know it.
millions of americans struggle with addiction and most of them can't get help. chances are, you're affected by addiction in one way or another (yourself, a friend, a family member..) and this documentary does a fantastic job at helping to remove the stigmas from the disease and show the struggles on the way down as well as up. i think america as a whole should be forced to watch this film- it's unparralled.
