Very rarely would i create an account to review a movie but here I am. Josh, the director and actor is simply stunning, beautifully written and full of hard to face emotion. Not a lot of movies do that, this one did. Raw emotion is felt throughout, a must watch if you are a recovering addict. They portrayed these emotions in a way that can only be done if they have intimate knowledge of addiction themself. I want to give it an 11 so if you can face your heart, watch it. It's worth it.

This film got way to low a rating! It is powerful, emotional, and moving in so many ways. It's real and raw! My moods changed with the film. I felt sadness and then hopelessness and then hopefulness. The way it approaches addiction and grief was extremely moving. Truly an incredible movie that deserves more praise.

Totally mesmerizing movie that drew me right in. The acting was amazing and you can tell its a passion piece for all involved What would you do for 4 tablets? One of the interesting aspects is it show people coming into addition by different means, not just you made bad choices etc. Highly recommend :)

An absolutely fantastic movie. Brilliant true to life acting. Loved this movie entirely.

This movie may not resonate with some people because it deals, very eloquently, with the opioid crisis in many eastern states that are primarily poverty stricken. I must say that it so delicately deals with the constant need to be strong, work, and provide while balancing a family, and how swiftly that thread can unravel in the wake of tragedy. Waylon's world was precariously balanced on a ledge, and when his daughter dies it ends up tipping into the chaos he zealously fought against for most of his better years. The acting in this movie is stellar, and the cast really dug their nails into the dirt of a very real, and terrible thing that happens to so many people in West Virginia and surrounding states. Sometimes we can forget that there are very real people with very real addictions that can turn into complete devastation on a dime. This film delivers some hard hits disguised as mundane moments as you follow the main character (Waylon) through his grief, and ultimate freedom from the opioids that plague him and keep him sedated. This film struck a chord in my heart because it truly and artfully showed a family in turmoil, and without grandstanding or hamfisting, showed the work and hardship it takes to pull yourself out when the system fails and the folks you love are the only ones able to put in the effort to help.

This movie is not for anyone having a not so great day. It really is pretty real and about real problems. It's hard to say I understand this movie because I really don't when it comes to its content. I've never had drug issues personally. However, that being said if you want a very real drama about very real issues, this is one to watch. Again Josh Stewart and A.J. Cook are great and both shine in this.

Great performance here by Josh Stewart. This movie is really well done. Essentially a character study about how we can all take a deep dive after the loss of a child, Back Fork delivered on a lot of levels. The movie also delivered on cinematography , music and the acting by all involved was excellent. This one can touch the heartstrings too and there aren't that many movies out there that make me think about that. Then come to find out Stewart wrote it and directed it also? Okay top notch. 9/10

A film about love and loss. Understated. Beautiful. Heart wrenching. Life affirming. Touching. Achingly sad. All of these yet uplifting at the same time. Manchester by the Sea on a low budget. Both films brilliant in their own right.
