12 Steps to Recovery

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.

This was such a heartfelt and touching film! I especially connected with the tender moments that were shared between Josh and his mom. Ryan Watson did an excellent job of not sugarcoating the harsh realities of addiction, yet still leaving viewers with a message of inspiration and renewal. This film has the potential to resonate with a wide audience, whether or not they share the same beliefs, as it ultimately celebrates the triumph of the human spirit and the possibility of redemption. "12 Steps to Recovery" effectively explores the inner turmoil and external challenges that individuals face on their path to recovery. The film doesn't preach; instead, it inspires viewers to reflect on the power of faith and community support in overcoming addiction. A must-see!

One of my friends posted online about this film and I wanted to give it a look. Josh is someone that a lot of people including myself can relate to. I enjoyed the emotion, the romance and SPICYNESS, the drama, the suspense. I don't think we learn enough about the struggle people and their families go through on a day-to-day basis when it comes to addiction. You could see in Josh's eyes throughout the movie that he was going through a lot and needed God. It would be awesome to have a 2nd movie to see what happens with Josh and Kate. I definitely recommend watching this film. I hope we see more Arizona films in 2024!

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.
