Amazing Film!!!


I saw this movie in San Diego with 3 friends and all of us were blown away by it. The opening scene is very powerful and sets the tone for the range of emotions this film touches on. I definitly recommend people go see Self Medicated and find out for themselves why this movie won so many awards in 2006.

Friends of Monty Lapica should really stop posting generic praise for this complete piece of schlock here. One of the worst movies I've ever seen and Monty's acting was absolutely horrendous.

reply

well that's your opinion. Don't cyberyell at people who liked the movie. Your comments won't change peoples' opinions.

I'm not cyberyelling, idiot. That's what message boards are for. To post opinions. My opinion is that this film sucked ass. Don't you really have anything better to do than reply to every negative post, Monty? I guess not.

damnit i'm caught

okay... if you weren't cyberyelling there you sure are now. If you want people to respect your opinions don't call them idiots. It's mean... you're mean.

And my name's not Monty, it's Annie you silly! Oh, you make me laugh.

reply

You make me laugh, as well. I'm glad we're able to entertain each other, Annie. Would you like to dump your talentless boyfriend who made that horrible movie and date me instead?

P.S. I'm not mean. If the movie was good you'd think I'm the sweetest guy in the world because I'd be full of praise. Alas, it's crap.

reply

ummm I'm a kid. So no, just no, don't be sick. Okay... go ahead and think the movie was bad, you're just being kinda rude to me. And listen, is it truly possible that I'm not connected to Mony Lapica in any way at all and just enjoyed the movie and the fact that it portrayed a true story about a real place, branches of which still exist and torture kids every day? And be happy that SOMEONE finally got the word out? Answer me that.

reply

OK, fine. You being a kid explains a whole lot. Many of the movies that I thought were great when I was a kid and I have goten a chance to watch again now turned out to be complete crap from the much more mature way that I use to evaluate movies now.

In any case, I'm entitled to my opinion as are you, so we can end it here. I was just annoyed that you took my opinion that this movie sucks so personally. It really did seem like you are the one who made it. People can have different opinions on things. To me this movie went from kind of OK to extremely cheesy at the end and was full of absolutely horrible acting - worst acting I've seen in a very long time. Maybe if you watch it again in 10-15 years you'd agree with me.

Anyway, I'm sorry for being mean. Had I known you were a kid I wouldn't talk to you the way I did.

reply

ok good idea to end it here. My opinion still clashes with yours, but like you said, we are entitled to having them. sorry I took it too personally, i might have been especially pissed off at something else...

reply

There's always a pretty good chance that two people will have a different opinion on many subjects. Nothing wrong with that.

reply

mmm-hmmm : )

this was an excellent movie

reply

honestly, this movie was really powerful to me...i've seen a lot of films and this one really hit me...i like the "you just have to fix things of your own" message...everyone's such a wuss now a days and have to be "reformed" or take medication...of course this is my opinion and i don't give a sh!t who thinks it sucks

reply

i saw this film in phoenix almost two years ago. i thought it was excellent and have been checking this page frequently to find out when it is coming out on dvd. does anyone know? i would really like to see it again.

reply

you can find it on netflix or video stores.

I rly liked thisone it had a rly nice storyline crappy acting but the story made this a good film. As for the people before a film can have bad actors in it but that doesn't make the film terrible... imo the storuline is more important.
