VHS Movie Reviews of Clean & Sober [VHS]
Movie Review: Clean and Sober
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great movie. I am a recovering alcoholic/addict and the movie is a great eye opener. This movie is shown at the rehab hospital that I attended. It was a great help not only for me but a few others. Thank you.

Summary: 4 Stars
Aside from Michael Keaton delivering yet another outstanding performance, along with a fine appearance by Morgan Freeman, this classic movie about addiction, treatment, recovery and the reality of all the ensuing complications is one of the few that gets it right. This is not just a depressing story about some drunk stumbling around for two hours and then finally dying. This is an honest and entertaining look at close to what it is really like to go through what the movie's characters endure. Similar to the reality of A Man and A Woman, another of the rare group of movies that entertain while educating about addiction without preaching. There is one scene in here that you do NOT want anyone to tell you about ahead of time. It is guaranteed to grab you! I highly recommend it, whether you are exposed to addiction's issues or not. It is good viewing.Movie Review: perfection
Summary: 5 Stars
Michael Keaton performs his role as an addict to perfection. This movie is both inspirational and hysterically funny. It is of interest to all, those with or without drug or alcohol abuse concerns in their family!Movie Review: OK
Summary: 3 Stars
I picked this film up for it's 80's nostalgia. It depicts the AA/NA meetings/groups and sponsors well. it's still hollywood, but is pretty true to form. Great performance by Morgan Freeman and Michael Keaton.
Summary of Clean & Sober [VHS]
After making his mark in several hit comedies including Beetlejuice, Michael Keaton startled critics and audiences alike with his acclaimed performance in this 1988 drama about one man's struggle against cocaine addiction. Keaton's comedic energy is transformed here into the kind of jittery intensity that's perfect for his role, suggesting a driven personality who can maintain the appearance of self-control for only so long before he crashes and burns. After a series of setbacks, Keaton's character seeks refuge in a drug rehabilitation program and must confront the truth of his own addiction at the urging of a counselor (Morgan Freeman) who's heard every lame excuse in the book from addicts struggling to quit. Kathy Baker leads a superb supporting cast as a recovering alcoholic and battered wife whose flagging self-esteem is boosted by Keaton's attention. Under the careful direction of Glenn Gordon Caron (of TV's Moonlighting fame), Keaton and Baker handle this delicate material with consummate skill and grace, turning a potentially depressing story into a moving portrait of people who must battle their inner demons step by tentative step. --Jeff ShannonAddiction & Alcoholism Video
