    Solid Film

    I thought the cast had good chemistry together and overall the acting was solid. The story has a familiar approach but I was entertained throughout.

    Interesting dramedy of prescription drugs epidemic

    Rasheed Stephens was amazing in this movie as writer, producer, director, and actor. The 2 lead actors had great chemistry. The supporting cast also had a few standouts, the 2 actress who played the waitresses were fun and relatable. The family interactions showed warmth and are touching.

    "Induced Effect" has a unique perspective. Would recommend if you're looking for some something different and refreshing

    This indie movie was funnier than I expected and highlighted the prescription drugs epidemic. Eric Roberts and Norman Johnson both also did a wonderful job. I did enjoy watching this indie dramedy.

    Must see this

    This film portrays and questions the morality of the current system, where drug companies commit the same crimes that a drug lord but get away with it.

    Entertaining Movie

    Induced Effect is about two teenagers that get together making an odd ball couple to sell perscription drugs in an dramatic comedy. The characters will keep you interest from beginning to end.

    Solid film that delivers

    Good Film. Was not sure what to expect but drawn by some of the comments in the good reviews. It was a nice piece of indie film making by Rasheed Stephens. He takes on some of today's social issues and weaves a good and dramatic story. He even finds a way to inject a little humor. A good storyline, well acted and worth a watch. Give it a watch.
