Puncture (2011)

By | 2012-05-16

The only draw to the movie initially for me was Chris Evans. In the end, it was still the only reason I watched it. It’s quite a dark and gloomy tale. Apparently based on a real story of a lawyer that struggles with his own drug addiction, and righting a wrong in the US medical supply industry.

There is absolutely nothing fun or uplifting about this. It’s sad and depressing throughout. You don’t watch this type of movie for escapism. The story is slow to get going, but becomes interesting and holds your attention till the end.

I haven’t researched and confirmed the authenticity of the story this movie portrays, but if it is at least loosely true, it is educational (if nothing else) on the abuses that occurs in big business, when money is more important that life.

6/10
