Dear Sobriety: You're Killing Me

About This Movie

So, 'Dear Sobriety: You're Killing Me' is an interesting dive into the life of Raffi, who’s just about hit forty and can’t seem to shake off his addiction. The comedy is pretty raw, I mean, waking up in your mom's house after another rehab stint? It’s got this painfully relatable vibe where you feel his frustration with the system—and himself. The pacing is a bit erratic, which fits his chaotic life. What stands out are the practical effects that highlight his struggles without being too heavy-handed. The performances, especially from Raffi, are genuine, layered with humor and desperation. There’s this dichotomy of laughter and sadness that’s hard to pin down but makes it distinctive. Definitely not your usual feel-good flick, more like a real look at the mess of recovery.
