Gutterbug

Loved this film, it was pretty dark and heavy at times but there was also some funny moments mixed in and the soundtrack was killer! It has its flaws, as it's definitely a lower budget indie, but having said that, with the pacing and energy of it I just couldn't look away. Would definitely recommend for fans of Suburbia, SLC Punk, and Trainspotting.

Very underrated on imdb. Solid acting throughout, and a seriously good story. The rest has been said by others better before me in the reviews. Highly recommended!

Kinda pretentious indie drama about depression, drug addiction, the struggle of trying to get by and trying to get home. It's a pretty compelling story, just a bit let down by some dodgy dialogue here and there and a few of the cast not pulling their weight. I enjoyed the last 30 minutes or so a lot, it gets pretty insane and intense. Not that the first hour was bad or anything...just kinda felt like it was walking a straight path for too long. Decent enough.

This movie highlights so many societal issues within our country that every single person out there can relate to, through the lease of a trouble young man who became lost when his faith was destroyed by the ones he had faith in the most. There is heartbreak, love, rebellion, adventure, humor, pain, failure, and success in everyone's lives and I think this story does a great job of touching every type of viewer within those feelings and aspects of life. We don't have to be homeless to be able to relate to the underlying themes of this story, we just have to be alive, and I think that's part of what makes this story so great. If you know someone, you're doing them a disservice by withholding the recommendation to watch this film.

This is about as good as you get to a flashback to the Trainspotting glory, although T.S. was the ultimate realistic look at the junkie world Gutterbug has parts that make me question the raw authenticity it's attempting to achieve!
