there were noticeable issues in personality changes in a couple of the characters, but nothing major. She somehow made me feel like I was seeing something private and I wasn't supposed to be there at all. She portrayed perfectly a troubled girl who battled her demons and never felt quite like she was winning. I expected right from the start to see Kat come out as that brassy bold woman we all know and love, or not, but that wasn't the case. Anybody who has ever sought recovery knows it is a very personal and heart-wrenching journey that can't be done alone. What made this movie extraordinary for me was that they never really tried to offer a solution. The fact that this story is based on a true story was secondary for me. At times I related personally and at others I was reminded of someone in my life. The movie is honest and unapologetic and Kat nailed it. There is a lot to grasp and the pace is neither quick or slow, somehow they got it just right and that in itself is huge. I was captivated by the story, which on its own unfortunately is a common and ordinary one these days. Having dealt with addictions and a major depressive order I feel I'm qualified to comment further. This movie touched me in so many ways I hardly know where to start. I also saw Kat in the Thor movies and felt there wasn't ever going to be anything special about her. I was a fan of 2 broke girls in the beginning but drifted away from it because I felt it continued to go in a more and more ridiculous direction. I have to confess I almost passed on it after reading a review on this site where the reviewer named Kat Dennings as his favorite actress. This movie is both ordinary and extraordinary.
