    Spot On!

    As someone in the recovery community, I tend to anticipate movies that attempt to portray addiction and recovery with some trepidation wondering if they will "get it right." In my opinion, "Smashed" gets it right. It explores alcoholism and recovery and all the potential subplots of the journey (i.e., personalities/situations in AA, having a significant other who still uses, dealing with issues with employers after we get sober, relapse, family dynamics, etc. etc.) all in around an hour and a half!! If you are in recovery, you will enjoy it and may find yourself shaking your head "yes that was me" or "could have been me." The acting was terrific all around. I highly recommend it!

    More than a PSA for alcoholism

    Smashed is film which shows the struggles of one peson to overcome alcoholism. The film doesn't try to demonize alcoholism nor make excuses for it. The acting was excellent with special kudos to Mary Elizabeth Winstead.

    I got what I came for! Wow, well done!

    Wow, well done! Mary Elizabeth Winstead did not disappoint! I specifically went to see if she could really act as well as I saw on the preview that I saw! FINALLY, a great actress emerges from a generation of ho-hum actresses. She could very well be the Meryl Streep of her generation! And, if you are someone who has experienced an alcoholic in your home, the raw vibes and memories that this movie depicts will all come back to you - I caution this because it did that for me. . . a not so great result, but if movie making can be this good, that is bound to happen. Great movie making? . . . well, its about time! Bravo!!

    Solid film

    (Disclaimer: this is not a film I generally would have gone to see had it not been the first project my daughter worked on when she moved to L.A. (Prop Intern, Yay, Diana))

    That said, while it doesn't break any new ground nor does it give any great insights, Smashed is a solidly written film with an exceptional cast and excellent performances.

    Smashed looks like a success but it's gone

    The reviews for this regular folk with drinking problems movie I'd never heard of has the great reviews Alex Cross was supposed to have.

MatthewMucci SMASHED: Winstead gives one of my favorite female lead performances in recent memory. If PTA directed this, it'd be a great film. C+
