Don't be misled..........2007-05-11
After watching the beginning of this movie for the first 10 minutes or so, any viewer would form the view that it was a documentary. But it's not.
I am hard to please when it comes down to viewing deep subjects, but I was surprised just how good this movie was. I feel it gives a realistic look into the lives of those addicted to and affected by heroin.
The acting is so-so but I feel if other actors were used, the movie may not have been so real to life.
Wasted is much better than its given credit for.......2006-03-30
While this film fictionalizes the account of the drug deaths in Plano, you can hear the ring of real voices inside the monologue. There is no romanticizing the use of heroin, the kids use simply because they want to use, and it there for them. Without comedy, exaggeration, or inflated drama, 'Wasted' simply tells the story of one girl's relationship with heroin and how it almost killed her.
Nick Stahl, Summer Phoenix, and Aaron Paul play their roles expertly and believably as Chris, Samantha, and Owen, respectively. I'm a fan of Nick Stahl anyway, part of the reason I rented a MTV produced movie. The production, photography, and presentation of the movie is better than I thought would come out of MTV also, so give this movie a try by renting and find out for yourself.
Samantha and her lifelong friends Owen and Chris grew up together in Plano, TX, what Samantha calls a "Pop-Up" city. Their parents are all wealthy, and the kids are all bored, waiting to find out which college they will be going to after high school. So they party and get high.
Samantha overdoses, and Chris, a track star and the only friend who doesn't use heroin, takes Sam to the hospital. Sam is forced to confront her addiction and attend NA classes. Owen, Sam's boyfriend who is heavy into using, doesn't want to take her, so Chris drives her to her meetings. Chris and Samantha develop a stronger relationship while Owen falls away from them, still deeply imbedded in his drug lifestyle. Regardless of the fact that Sam drops Owen and begins to date Chris, the three are still fast friends.
Sam slips, Chris blows his knee in a track meet and winds out trying heroin, Owen continues to behave like a mess, and meanwhile kids in this pop-up town are dying right and left, from boredom and heroin.
The results are typical, but what makes 'typical' not-cliché in this movie is that these events are based on the real facts that occurred in Plano, and the narrative based on real kid's voices. In spite of film's inability to ever reach box-office proportions, I felt that it was well acted, well scripted, realistic, and something I would certainly want my kids to watch. Definitely worth at least a rental. Enjoy!
Good and bad points..........2004-07-13
I didn't have very high expectations of this movie, but there were some pleasant surprises.Somehow the movie draws you in right away, and gets you to really care about what happens to the characters.Frightening how the teens seem to be completely different people than who their parents think they are...but as a former teen myself, and mom of teens today, sadly it is true to life. Some parts of the movie however, were just not believable.From my own experience, it is possible for a teen to be friends with kids that do drugs, and yet not do them. But there's got to be a reason for that, like healthy fear! (And I never saw anything as scary as the things that happen in this movie!) I just didn't buy that Chris went from drug free,athletic, seeing terrible things happening to his friends,trying to help them,even going to to NA meetings with Sam one day, to sticking a needle in his arm the next...
good acting with a good soundtrack.......2004-05-23
I thought this movie was great, it actually really hit home when I first seen it, and definately made me think alot about how serious smack is. Im glad I saw this movie, cuz it was an amazing learning expierence. Theirs great music in the movie also, that coldplay song at the end of the movie is amazing. Goes perfect with the scene.
Wasted Youth??.......2004-01-12
Wastedm, hits home by showing the insanity of heroin use amoung teens. Heroin use is becoming very prevelent amoung middle class suburbanites, and the movie accuratley depicts the motions of addiction. It seems that MTV made a movie based on my life. Furthermore, the movie is a very dramatic, heartfelt peice of art.

ENOUGH ALREADY.......2006-05-21
It's time to grow up and think about something new! The 80's are gone.Just like our big hair.Life is good almost 20 years later. It was fun,what I remember of it and today...?No regrets!Just some sweet memories. Have a nice day!
Matt Fallon. Now of British Columbia
Baz is an egotistical, self-centered prick - that's why he's gone!.......2006-05-21
Yeah, Matt was a great guy, but Baz put the Skids on the map. Unfortunately, he's a god in his own mind and pretty much destroyed the band from the inside all by himself. Shades of Van Halen...... As a fan, I agree that he is the voice of Skid Row, but having known the guys personally for over 20 years, I would never wish the pain they went through trying to deal with Baz on anyone. Better to limp along and enjoy life that do deal with that Bazzhole...............
Yeah guys, it's Tim and I'm tellin' it like it is.........
okay caz we get it.......2006-03-17
you are the one and only Matt Fallon fan. Let it go. No one has any interest in hearing anything by him. If they did, then he would have been the voice of Skid Row. Baz was, is, and always will be the voice of Skid Row. That is why he has a record contract and they don't even have a label.
They should have Never Fired Matt Fallon!.......2006-01-27
What were they thinking when they fired Matt Fallon(the original singer of Skid Row) Bach is over-rated and now won't even get back together with the original band and tour again. What a Loser!

Very lame.......2007-03-26
I was very disappointed with this movie. The summary of the movie on the cover indicates David Caruso as the main star, his picture is on the front. Except he is only in the movie for about a minute. The movie is supposed to be a comedy. There may be one scene that is humorous, but for the most part it's a drama and a very poor one. I wouldn't recommend anyone waste their time with this movie.
Great movie -- BUT terrible DVD - AWFUL!!!.......2006-07-29
I remember seeing this movie way back when -- ok, I'm dating myself -- but still, it was a fun movie when you see the whole thing. THIS dvd version is the worst I've ever seen -- of ANY movie! It's grainy and soft, made off of what looks like a scratched up, cut up, 16mm local television station print -- that they dragged around the parking lot first.
Let's start with the DVD box: It inadvertantly (?) excludes the star, Brian Kerwin who gives a magnificent performance as a confused teen of the 60's who finally sees the light and instead gives a full size picture and starring credit to David Caruso who is only in the thing for like 47 seconds! They even made up a name to credit the director who was in fact Paul Frizzler.
The transfer is full screen which means that it cuts off the sides and during the main titles, names are falling off the edges and are illegible. And there is a lot of action that occured on the sides that help tell the story and the jokes that are missing. It's like pan and scan withouth panning or scanning!
At the end of the reels it goes to black for a few seconds every 10-15 minutes, there are jump cuts when bad word are uttered or they are "scrambled" aurally. And entire sections are hacked out that were some of the funniest moments, that now make the story incongruous and hard to follow. Too bad as the film actually had an interesting point of view and some good acting by the stars Brian Kerwin, Cooper Huckabee as the "experienced" best pal, Stephen Furst as the bumbling buddy and a few others. Alos, a lot of original music of the period that today would be hard to come by in a movie of this budget.
I really wish someone would put out a good version of this film as it was, like I said earlier, really a funny, well made film originally. I'm really surprised that Amazon would sell such a piece of crap as this, a real abomination compared to what it could have been.

Getting Wasted=Waste of Time and Money.......2006-06-08
1 star is 1 star more than this movie deserves. I ordered this movie from another site I won't name. I'm a BIG fan of David Caruso and I have at least a dozen movies with him in them. I'll list all the movies I have with David Caruso in them at the end of this review. Anyway, I wanted to add this one to that list of movies. Well now I wish I hadn't added it to the list. This movie is BORING, David is only in 2 VERY SHORT scenes, the picture is grainy and snowy, the color is very poor. Plus at the beginning when they're showing who's in the movie, it looks like someone set up a camcorder and recorded the movie off a tv playing a VERY OLD VHS tape of the movie in their VCR and they set up the camcorder too far to the right. Some of the names of people in this movie you can't even see the first 2 or 3 letters of their first and last names. Save your time and your money...DON'T ORDER THIS MOVIE!!!
As promised here's all the movies with David Caruso in them I have: Black Point, Hudson Hawk, Jade, Deadlocked, Twins, Session 9, Elmore Leonard's Gold Coast, Proof of Life, King of New York, Mad Dog and Glory, First Blood, Getting Wasted, Thief of Hearts, Officer and a Gentleman, Cold Around the Heart.
