Review title: The movie seems as long as the title would indicate.
Product review: Sandra Bullock "vehicle" in which chemical dependency -- and the associated problems associated with it, like familial disassociaton, depression, suicidal tendencies, withdrawal, mental illness, even the "psychological roots" of the addiction -- are breezily resolved in 90 or so minutes. Of course you got your cute guys (Viggo Mortensen) and your assorted, harmless nuts for "comic relief", if you must call it that. Steve Buscemi's counselor-character threatens to become interesting, but he's sort of forgotten about pretty quickly, because Bullock must never, never, NEVER get upstaged . . . or allow anyone else to shine even for a brief moment.
