Review by davidehrlich ★½ 4

James Frey has a fascinating story. Unfortunately for him, the most fascinating (and factual) part of that story didn’t start until after he published his best-selling, Oprah-endorsed 2003 memoir about his substance addiction and subsequent rehab, “A Million Little Pieces.” Only in January 2006, when an investigative report called “A Million Little Lies” alleged that Frey had fabricated many of the details in his book, did his true legacy begin to take shape.
But while some were quick to call it a scandal and throw the baby out with the bathwater, film people were perhaps a bit more forgiving; we work in a medium that’s dependent upon illusion, and intrinsically encourages storytellers to pursue truth even at the expense of…

Aaron Taylor-Johnson's penis to win best supporting actor.
Review by Eoin ★★

TIFF 2018: Film #10
Do you want to see Aaron Taylor-Johnson's dick? Do you want to see Giovanni Ribisi's dick? How about both at the same time? Ho boy, do I have the movie for you.
It's a perfectly fine movie overall, it's not a particularly great film but then it's hardly grossly offensive or boring either.
Taylor-Johnson seems to be at the point in his career where he’s acting with both this and Outlaw King. It's a little much but it's hardly annoying as it could be.
Review by Love, Nathan ★★★

after a stressful half an hour of thinking i’d been sold a lie, a million little pieces gave me what i wanted: aaron taylor johnson’s penis in all of its captivating, lengthy glory. my jaw is still on the cinema floor and my heart has not stopped beating.
i don’t know a better willy. thank you movie for giving the ladies and gays everything we could have possibly asked for.

Depressing
Review by Brad Hanson ★★½

Aaron Taylor-Johnson is extremely convincing as an addict but the most commendable part of his acting range is feigning attraction to a woman young enough to be his wife’s daughter.
Also he has a massive penis.

Review by Lewis Brownlie ★★★★

Just wanna say another thing. This film was honestly great. Amazing acting. And Aaron Taylor Johnson’s dick is honestly fucking massive fair play to the geeza. Like no joke I would suck, he’s honestly a handsome fella and I’d be lucky to have the chance

I’m gonna become skinny
Review by Cine En Serio ★½

La directora británica Sam Taylor-Johnson coloca delante de la cámara a su marido en lo que parece más un homenaje-oportunidad para lucirse éste, que un proyecto debidamente pensado. El cónyuge encarna a James Frey, un joven politoxicómano que ha tocado fondo e ingresa en un centro de desintoxicación: allí hay pocas pero estrictas reglas. Se puede ir cuando quiera, pero será expulsado si consume alcohol o drogas, o tiene relación con alguna mujer.

Review by Calum North ★★★½

Things I fucked with:
The dental scene: Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope.
Cheeky opening: Even though I did take issue with the behind-the-scenes controversy I did get a chuckle out of the opening caption.
Wonderful setups: A lot of shots contain really striking blocking that made me realise how complacent most films have become.
Aaron Taylor-Johnson: Really lived-in, dynamic performance which almost feels too good for the film he inhabits elevating the material as a whole.
Insight to recovery: The film spotlights the varying struggles an individual may face dealing with addictions both on an informative level and an emotional one.
Billy-Bob: He lit the screen up every time he had a camera pointed at him, this performance is blurred somewhere…

Review by TheSimon ★½

A fairly pedestrian addiction drama with flashes of style at the beginning which would have been very welcome throughout the majority of the film.
