A woman (Jacobson) learns her brother (Franco) has relapsed on heroin.
Leave your thoughts about 6 Balloons.
| Blu-ray.comBrian Orndorf"6 Balloons" is wrenching stuff, but it offers points of behavioral illumination to enhance the viewing experience, and there's Franco doing his best work to date. |
| Film InquiryHazem FahmyIt's always refreshing to see a take on a social epidemic that doesn't wallow in clichés of suffering, but rather examines the humanity underneath it all. |
| Common Sense MediaRenee SchonfeldThere aren't too many new ways of putting drug addiction under a filmed microscope, but writer-director Marja-Lewis Ryan has created an original, affecting drama that will both disturb and inspire. |
| Daily Journal (Kankakee, IL)Kiera AllenJacobson does a fantastic job portraying someone who's at the end of her rope while still feeling like she has to do more. |
| Hammer to NailChristopher Llewellyn ReedA gripping sibling drama ... 6 Balloons carries us to a very dark place before bursting in a beautiful final catharsis of relief and release. |
| Flicks.co.nzAmanda Jane RobinsonA brief but unrelenting study in the toll love can take on the person closest to an addict. |
| FlavorwireJason BaileyThere is a sense that the picture ends just as it gets going. But it's a movie that understands co-dependency from the inside, as well as the helplessness and hopelessness of trying to cure someone else's addiction. |
| RogerEbert.comBrian TallericoIt is incredibly difficult to love an addict. Not only does their addiction continuously define the dynamic of your relationship, but they are like a drowning man, able to take you down with them as they flail their arms and fight for air. Rarely has a film captured this better than Marja-Lewis Ryan’s 6 Balloons. |
| VarietyJoe LeydonYou can’t help feeling that something terrible will happen at any moment, unless something worse happens first. |
| ClarínPablo A. ScholzIn truth, it is about an addict and how his behavior, rather than reverberate, transforms the lives of those who love and surround him. [Full review in Spanish] |
