"This video on the dangers of teen drinking doesn't pull any punches. From the opening shots of a girl vomiting into a toilet to a young man telling of being so drunk he doesn't remember having sex, the pressure is relentless. Teens talk about why they do or don't drink. One girl smilingly tells of her binge drinking all the while denying alcoholism. Her friend then relates how worried she is about her best friend's actions while under the influence. A police officer gives advice on what to do rather than get into a car with a driver who has been drinking. A representative from M.A.D.D. defines designated driver, and a mother tearfully recounts her son's death due to a drunk driver. Date rate, sexual assault, and the contracting of STDs due to drinking are discussed. The presentation is straightforward. The interviews are traditional 'talking heads' shots in a variety of settings. The party scenes use a strobe light effect. Facts concerning teen drinking are flashed on the screen periodically. The teens who speak are ethnically diverse; the adults are not. A good choice for libraries looking for a hard-hitting approach to teen alcohol abuse."
