First you get James Woods so sit back and relax and enjoy as he does his job of entertaining you. Before I go on, read the book which is highly entertaining and so real and down to earth and you will be thoroughly entertained through and through with the combo. What we have here is stark reality of how drugs do what they do and what happens to humans while the drug does its thing. Anyone who has taken drugs or consumed too much food or alcohol can easily see the abuse of what they are doing take hold and redirect their true life as they do it. You see there is a Universal Law (rule) that states: Whatever you get into gets into you. This rule is non-negotiable. Here in this movie you see it up close and it has no mercy on whom it grabs on to. Mind you, everyone first believes the "lie" of this won't hurt, I won't get into it, I can get out of it, it is only temporary and many other variations. Then, at some point, the demon hook is set! Vividly constructed and acted out in both the book and the movie. Drugs and any excess are like lying, cheating and stealing. It works! It is getting caught or paying the price that no one likes. We are also introduced into another Universal Law: Every new high leads to a new low. Thus the low compels one to seek the high and a cycle of hell is born. Rational thought, reason and patience are the first to go followed by the darkness getting its turn and submitting its own dynamics some counterfeit, imitative and of course all substitute for the real life. Remember the famous: You can check in but you cannot check out statement? That's here too. Drugs? Addictions? Lies? Pray GOD it doesn't befall you and if it does, pray GOD to deliver you.
