This movie position as a thriller but indeed the should be a drama instead. Wrong positioning on the theme given audience wrong expectations.

A night of reckless drinking compels Ed, a car mechanic, to forcibly detox his best friend Charlie - no matter what the cost - in this film from Kirby Voss (who directed and co-wrote the movie with Felicia Stallard. As Charlie sleeps off last night's drinking, Ed goes through the home and pours out all of his alcohol. The reaction is worse than you'd expect, with Charlie hitting every target on his friend, even taking great pains to make fun of his sexual orientation. It doesn't get any better for Ed. Jarden Bankens (who was Darkness in Words on Bathroom Walls) as Ed and William McGovern as Charlie bring so much to this movie, which they have to, as they are the only characters on screen for most of its running time. You buy that they are friends at the same time you sense the hopelessness of their situation. The film uses its sound and split-screen views to repeatedly slam you in the face with the sheer pain of this intervention. This is a bleak film and may not be for everyone, but if you want to see an interesting take of addiction and mental health, this is for you.

Didn't really think much from the poster and the two reviews on here, but this was good! Great direction from Kirby Voss and I quite like the use of split screen and flash cuts to give an uneasy feeling throughout. I didn't really enjoy the score or supporting cast. One of the more realistic performances I have seen, Jared Bankens owns the role of Charlie with brutal honesty. An actor to definitely watch out for. Will McGovern does a great job as Ed. Give it a try!

This was quite raw. A close up look at an alcoholic's mania (and brain damage due to years of alcohol consumption) and how far friendship can go in saving a friend. Ill advised medically, but it made for a good story. The acting was very good; shows skill and dexterity. They need more opportunities in film; they deserve it. Cinematography and composition was excellent. The one MAJOR MAJOR MAJOR MAJOR fault is the christian nonsense that is filtered into it. Christians can't resist making nonbelievers look like they're messed up due to a lack of religion. Typical and that is why I gave the film only 5 stars. Normally I give manipulative christian movies a 1, but the rest of the attributes of the film were very good.
