The Drunk (2014)
2/10
Bad Acting, Stupid Story, False AA Story
10 December 2014
Warning: Spoilers
I've seen a lot of movies, many about drinking, and this is perhaps the worst I've ever seen. The acting is amateurish, the production quality is average, the film's sound was sometimes just terrible, and the story was a farce.

There are several scenes when the acting was worse than our local high school students. Stilted, awkward, slow, and amateur.

Apparently the authors thought that all the alcoholic problems of the main character were solved by Joe Debs showed up to a single AA meeting. Trust me from personal experience, this is insulting to anyone who has ever struggled with addiction.

In any case, I was hoping for much much more. I only watched it to the end so that I could honestly provide a review.

Unless you are a huge fan of Terre Haute (the place it was filmed) I'd pass on this movie.
