Cuatro Días Más

Coming from someone who has worked in the addiction field in just about every capacity as well as dealt with it in my personal life I feel this is a very accurate depiction of addiction. From the conflicted mother trying not to enable her kid but not being able to trust a word that comes out of her mouth. To the addict who wants to get clean but continues to struggle despite the disgust she has for her addiction. It's so accurate it makes me cringe. Phenomenal acting. The mother trying to control every aspect of the addicts life and just falling short is just way too accurate.

This film is really touching. It tells the horrible struggles of both the addict and the family members. The story is raw and real. I think it's really worth watching.

This is a great attempt and Kunis , Close, and Root are magnificent.

BUT, it still does not go far enough in depicting the true horrors of detoxing. All the sweat, emesis and excreta are missing. All that crap that addicts families go through..This film just isn't ugly enough to frighten and shock everyone as they should be.

This is a beautiful emotional touching movie. It tackles a serious topic, that we've seen a lot in previous films, but it's still interesting and important to watch. The story is beautiful, sad, well written and unfolds beautifully. Performances by Glenn Close and Mila Kunis are both superb.

The previous reviewer complained that Rodrigo García's "Four Good Days" didn't go far enough in depicting its subject matter.

Of course it didn't. It's a movie, for crying out loud. "Schindler's List" couldn't fully depict the horrors of the Nazis' actions, and "12 Years a Slave" couldn't fully depict the brutality of slavery. The point is to give the viewer an idea of the misery that addicts and their families experience. It certainly gave me an idea of that. I recommend it.
