12 Steps to Recovery

I'm not surprised you won awards. Logan Stanzione gives an outstanding performance as Joshua, skillfully portraying the internal conflict and gradual transformation of a man caught between his past mistakes and his attempts to move forward. His performance captures both the frustration of trying to break free from old patterns and the cautious optimism of a second chance. Scenes where Joshua faces tough decisions about his future, as well as his moments of reflection, provide a compelling portrayal of the recovery process. Kate plays a key role in helping Joshua navigate these obstacles, offering a balance of support and tough love that challenges him to face the truth. The whole cast did a great job. Vanessa brought fire and drama to the pot. Kate's father was warm and protective. I don't typically watch these films however I was pleasantly surprised.

Incredible story of pulling out of an nose-dive of addiction and loss. Definitely recommend seeing this if you or a loved one are struggling to get through addiction. You really find yourself relating to these characters and feeling the roller-coaster of emotions/trials they're going through as you watch. Perfect example of a slow battle with addiction that can be lost with any trial we are faced with. The romance and the overall storyline are excellent with plot twists to keep you on your toes. Excellent work by all cast members and crew. There's really a lot to say about the film but it's better if you watch it and see for yourself. ENJOY!

12 Steps to Recovery left a big impact on me. Josh's performance as Joshua is absolutely incredible. From the very start, when he's involved in a robbery gone wrong that leads to his brother Anthony's death, you can see the pain and regret in his eyes. Josh makes you feel every bit of Joshua's suffering and his desperate need to make things right. His portrayal is so real and raw that I couldn't take my eyes off the screen.

The film does a great job of showing Joshua's relationships with the people around him, especially his mom, Melissa. Their scenes together are some of the most touching parts of the movie. You can feel the love and the pain between them, and it's clear that they have amazing chemistry. As someone who's super close with my own mom, these moments really hit home.

Another part of the movie that I loved was the support group scenes. They show different characters like Jason and Deborah, who are also dealing with their own struggles. These scenes felt so genuine and heartfelt, and Josh's performance really shines here. You can see Joshua's vulnerability and his determination to change, which made me root for him even more. The relationship between Joshua and Kate is also really interesting. Their interactions are full of tension and emotion, reflecting the challenges of rebuilding trust. This film shows the importance of love, support, and the strength to keep going, no matter how tough things get. I definitely recommend it!

Beautiful film about a young man's journey from the depths of desperation and despair to redemption and acceptance. Lovingly crafted, great story, and some wonderful performances, particularly by the lead actors. It follows an addict who Is struggling to put his life together after a deadly tragedy. My favorite scenes are between the addict and his mother who both deserve awards for this film. The scenes at the AA meetings are honest and realistic. It's all tied together with beautiful music and photography. A real gem of a movie! It is an engaging story with an important message, not to be missed!!

I really enjoyed watching Logan. He was seriously amazing as Joshua in 12 Steps to Recovery. He made the whole addiction and recovery thing feel so real, like you could totally feel his struggles. Watching him try to stay strong but still deal with all this pain was super relatable, especially if you know what it's like to face challenges head on. Clemente was great as well. He crushed his role, bringing some serious depth to the storyline. This film could've easily went into another path, however Logan and Clemente made the script pop and kept bringing me back in for more. Let's just say I've watched this film 3 times already...and will watch again.
