Review of Beautiful Boy (2018) by Nathan B — 18 Jan 2019

Carell, Chalamet. The big guns are here. Both superb performers and it's a bloody frustrating story as, like all stories of addiction are... you just want so much for them to turn their life around.

I was invested in this and the characters from the outset. There are a few slow moments, I think that is a fair criticism and it less about story and possibly more in the edit. Beautiful soundtrack, great scenery, well acted and really had me thinking on the way out and its all the more powerful as a true story.
