Alcoholist (2016) Reviews

  • Depressing

    shawnblackman2016-11-19

    An extreme alcoholic lives next door to the man who killed his family and was cleared of any charges. This is what started his drinking and all he lives for now is to kill the man next door. Bill Moseley plays the man he wants to kill. The weird cameo was by Lloyd Kaufman who sits on a tractor and waves at a guy. That's it. This film was very depressing as we watch this guy drink himself silly, and he still finds himself unable to kill the neighbour every chance he tries. He finds a little solace in a worker from AA who helps him fight his addiction. The film was a real slow burner but it wasn't too bad. It does get repetitive after a bit. A good ending I thought and you probably won't want to have a drink for some time.

  • Somewhat confused

    bastiaan07402016-11-13

    I don't know... If I were to read the script, I would say this movie would have a lot of potential. The actors are great, but the main lead behaves nothing like an alcoholic. His house is too clean, his body too well kept. His behavior is so unconform a drinker, I cringed. He acts more like a schizophrenic - a better title fit. The alcohol is emphasized, but a moot plot point and a sales pitch, leading to nothing. The therapy is extraordinary and senseless. The killing of his neighbor seems almost like a coincidental story, and that will leave you unsatisfied. In fact, all plot points are. The 'supernatural' visions are of no matter, and nothing is done with them, nor is it ever explained. Didn't like the CGI. They should have dropped it. Didn't like the ending. It was more of a 'situation' than a finale. This could easily have been the next 'the guest' with the plot idea. A stranger nearby with an aura of mystery and a mental condition, contemplating to kill - but believe me, if you want to kill somebody, you don't really go all out and buy the solitary house next door to make yourself the only suspect. Plenty of things just don't feel right with this one. Rating: 5.5/10

  • Downward Spiral.

    somersetboy2016-11-12

    The lead character renders a real portrayal of a real alcoholic. The acting is good to the point that you are forced to wonder if they got a real alcoholic to act in the movie! The support characters' performances are OK and 'almost' there. There is an overall darkness in the movie without any redeeming qualities. There appears to be an attempt to portray the obsessions, or the hidden darkness, of people with addictions and the people without. But this aspect is not made clear, or explored. I personally had an uncle who was never sober. He died when he was 42 years old from severe liver damage from alcoholism. That said, this movie perhaps tries to be a deterrent to viewers taking up the bottle. I don't see the point. I am not sure if it is effective in that message either. The bottle is taken up, even as this movie acknowledges, as a method of slow suicide. A brokenhearted or suicidal person taking to the bottle has already stopped caring about oneself or others, there is no real message or redemption in the movie. I felt that the movie took something away, my time, my desire to understand, and so on. The movie gave nothing. No entertainment, no real message. It left me depressed and regretting watching the movie. Hence only 4 stars. Just a fair warning.

  • Reminder not to drink.

    joshyates19802016-11-10

    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.
