Alcoholist (2017)

ridiculous rating

Crappy film

Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

This was an absolutely stunningly beautiful artistically cinematic and depressing disturbing and horrifying movie all in one it is much more than a man that is battling alcoholism and there's much more to the story than meets the eye it is one of those stores that will stay with you for long after the movie has ended I recommend this to any horror fan the acting is well was absolutely sensational

Can I just say, "WOW"! This movie will go down as my favorite drama movie of all time.Fascinating, inspiring. The acting was mesmerizing and the plot was impressively perfect. Went with another female friend . The lead actor renders a real portrayal of a real sick alcoholic person. The CGI visions are very intriguing. 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. If you are looking for a strange metaphysical film with lots of surprises and sick characters, this is definitely a good movie for you.

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.

If you are an alcoholic, the movie has a lot of scenes on why not to drink. Plenty of reminders! Overall, the story was good but I did scratch my head and wonder about the ending of the movie. Throughout the movie, the alcoholic is not the only person with an obsession. Individuals who reach out to help the suffering alcoholic and say, "Trust me" are not always to be trusted. Although, the movie includes many pathological altruistic people who are helping alcoholics not drink, the recovery is not healthy due to some of the controlling behavior enforced by the non alcoholic individuals. Another good reminder not to drink.
