Movie Review

American Meth (2008) is a documentary about how meth has become an epidemic in America. The movie showcases what meth is and what is has done to communities, families, and the lives of individuals. Especially the youth.

I feel that the documentary has done an exceeding job on covering all aspects of the drug. it covers the different viewpoints through interviews, a very well done job on interviews. From a journalism perspective, I could tell the director did a good job in asking questions. The documentary covered the emotinal damage Meth has done to many. There was also a segment shown on a family who both parents are hooked on the drug, also families who are all influenced by the drug. The documentary shows real life situations affected by Meth that instills fear and disgust in the viewers.

Although the content of the move is very informational and interesting, the quality of the videography isn't equally the same. A lot of the shots were shaky and the audio wasn't audible at times. Altogether, I believe that this documentary is worth watching if you want to get into the core Meth.
