High Road (2011)
4/10
The comedy was too subtle
7 July 2023
I struggle with addiction (fortunately, the social media kind, rather than chemical).

This movie helped me imagine what one extreme of my behavior would be like (short-sighted behavior in general, not just what was depicted).

Unfortunately, I believe this was not the purpose of the movie. I was expecting a laugh, but got just a few chuckles in what felt like a fever dream of repugnant behavior.

The problem was, I could relate with the characters. I never expected this to be a problem in a movie, but here the situations were not a laughing matter. I could not get through it.

Overall, I feel conflicted. I thank it for the motivation to get my life in order. But I did not find it funny. I found it a notch too realistic.
