It has taken me a few minutes to calm down from crying harder than I have cried in a very long time to start. What a ride. This movie was one of if not the most emotional movie I have ever seen in my life because, well I am the son but the reason I'm here writing this review today, figuratively and literally, is how this movie shows the important of a single decision and is truly a masterpiece of a film.
My my was/is the mother, my dad was is/the father, stepmom and half sister with similar age range. I found my self in a center similar to this in the exact same scenario except mine was enhanced with drugs but I had that same exact conversation with the doctor and my parents. My parents listened to the doctor and forced me to stay and if it wasn't for that single decision I would have been the son and would most likely not be here today. Frankly I'm not sure how I still am trust me I tried. My next phase was even worse but I'm happy to say I am almost 30 and am genuinely happy with myself and am working towards what I truly want to do and was able to break away from the control the father has over the son but my father makes his father look amazing.
This movie showed me a 3rd person view of my legitimately exact same scenario and showed me how damn far I have come and how much I truly owe it to some higher damn power that I am here today. This was hands down the most emotionally intense movie for me as it hit so close to home in landed in my lap.
Let me tell you from experience. It's describes the feeling and scenario extremely accurately.
