Far from Perfect, Far from Terrible

It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Quite a good animation short which combines simplicity, concision and wisdom. This is one of the truest, most accurate takes on the development and consequences of addiction I have ever seen. You're a healthy human being ; you take just a little bit of a drug ; you experience a rich, golden, transcendent delight ; you wake up with a headache and a vague sense of disappointment in everyday reality ; you want to experience the same peerless rapture, so you take drugs, again ; lather, rinse, repeat, while the highs get lower and the lows get lower still ; you realize this stuff is terrible for you, but you need more, more, more. And you end up shooting poison into your veins in order to stay alive, while knowing you're killing yourself.Not only a worthwile work of art, but also a good teaching tool : might provide a welcome alternative to the more boring kind of cautionary material used in schools.

This film is the perfect thing if you wanna show someone the impact that drugs/addictions can have on your life. No words - just art at it's finest, pure expression, the unspoken language .Highly recommended.
