Like it was made on while on Adderall- by users who don't know much about the drug

Unfortunately, this documentary is all over the the place. In fact, it's so needlessly hyped up and sensationalized that it almost feels like a commercial for Adderall until a third of the way through. A few years ago all the major television networks and news magazines covered the "Adderall: Everyone's Doing It... And It's Out of Control!" angle that this documentary adopts as its main storyline.What's left here are some haphazard anecdotes that really don't go very far into the major downsides of using this drug, along with a never ending panel of talking heads that do little more than reinforce the hype and headlines.This could have been a much more meaningful document of Pharma's lightly policed stimulant free-for-all, and it could've focused on the large scale toll this drug takes on society. Some suggestions (or human examples) of ways to deal with today's lifestyle without the use of these super potent CNS stimulants would've been helpful. Unmasking the corporate army behind the big drug push could've also done some good. Instead, it's more of an alarmist, late to the party, collage of hype and unhelpful (shocking!) opinions.

Little confused

I was little confused, should we take these pills or shouldn't we take these pills? Message was definitely delivered, however, i am afraid after watching this documentary, more people would find ways to take these pills rather than not. Documentary has reverse effect.
