No Future

Wow, that was one depressing movie. That said, it was also an excellent film overall. I thought the writing was excellent. There wasn't a heck of a lot of dialogue. But the dialogue was pretty intense.

The film was slow moving, and plodding, to great effect. It had a gentle pace about it as it makes its way to the end that comes as no surprise. I won't reveal what it is, but you kind of know what's coming.

And the acting was excellent. Everyone in this remarkable movie did a great job. For some reason, this one slipped under the radar what's with people? I thought this film deserved wider recognition, for sure.

Will (Charlie Heaton) is a drug addict struggling to stay clean. His friend Chris has more difficulties and dies from it. Despite struggling to stay with girlfriend Becca (Rosa Salazar), he begins a complicated affair with Chris' mother Claire (Catherine Keener).

This is an indie of troubled characters. There is a sense of the struggle to stay clean. Heaton is an effective lead and Keener steals a couple of scenes. She has one particularly powerful scene with two younger people in the plant nursery. This movie does leave one grounded down with its tone. It's not for everyone but it is effectively depressing.

Its as addictive as real life addictiveness, therefore beware and behold to not be alone when watching this, if you are on the skid row, have been on it in your past, or if you as a parent has lost a child due to medical or drug addictiveness, because this is heartwrenching, extremely realistic scenario of the psychosociodynamics around life and death due to addictiveness. See the film and you will soon realize if your strong enough to tiptoe yourself through this, i did, and as a grumpy old man that have had family members skidding, fortunately they are still alive, but cronically anxious to fall of the wagon again, therefore i felt the clamp and cramp in my heart of this story.

The plotpace are very slow, but thats done intentionally. Its an average produced film with noextending technical features, and the wave ofhunger, shame and guilt is solely done by the main cast, with catherine keener as the mourning mum(oscar worthy), and her boys childhood friend will played by charlie heaton. They do the acts with bravour...

i guess lots of clean people will find this just above feature lenght film boring and daft, so let them be so,and pray that they will never slide the skidrow themselves. Its a curricullum worthy silver screen product that willset out emotions, and will occur inyour dreams in the aftermath.a huge recommend for ''no future''

A life with drug addiction. The usual AAA style confessional group settings. Nothing much happens in this addicts daily life; the usual relationship issues. You decide the ending.

It's beautiful, real, sad and depressing. Screenplay is so simple yet so emotional and heartwarming. It tackles some serious issues as well. Performances are superb by everyone. It's very good but not everyone's cup of tea.
