Resolution, 2013 - ★★★
REVIEWED
Michael intervenes with his old friend Chris's drug habit, forcing him to go cold turkey by handcuffing him in his crack hovel. Only Michael keeps stumbling on bizarre media left around the crack shack, slowly both Mike and Chris's world turns in on itself.
Resolution makes for an interesting change of pace, albeit not a completely successful one. Its a little bit social drama here, a little bit meta thriller headfuck there, and lots of meh everywhere else. The vibe of the movie most reminded me of the indie gem 'Cookers' crossed with Stuart Gordons puzzling 'King of the Ants' (both far better movies in my opinion). My big problem was the poor unbelievable casting of Vinny Curran as the crack addict Chris, he seemed more like a member of the 'Hangover' gang, than a man living a drug addicted life.

Bill Oberst Jr. as the creepy French dope smoking archaeologist, the gleefully WTF/strange ending.
