Product Description
Stretch and spoon are two drug addicts who decide to go clean after a friend of theirs cookie goes into a drug induced coma. They encounter bureaucratic red tape however trying to get into a detox program and thus return to their drug dealer in the meantime. Studio: Uni Dist Corp. (mca) Release Date: 02/27/2007 Starring: Tim Roth Howard Hesseman Run time: 91 minutes Rating: R Director: Vondie Curtis-hall
Amazon.com
British actor Tim Roth and the rapper Tupac Shakur are an unexpectedly charismatic and refreshing duo in this off-beat buddy movie. Closer than two brothers, these junkie musicians vow to kick their habits after a soul-shattering New Year's Eve. Gridlock'd is fueled by characterization, of which there is plenty, as the two play off one another with such finesse you would never know Shakur had been a relative novice to the acting profession. Off-beat humor lightens a bleak reality as these outcasts run smack against a brutal bureaucracy. Except for a tired subplot meant to jazz up the action, director Vondie Curtis-Hall employs an inventive approach in this sadly ignored theatrical release. --Rochelle O'Gorman

 excellent & fast April 27, 2009
T. F. dollar Stretcher (FLORIDA, USA)
The seller sent the movie right away, it only took a couple of days and the movie was in perfect condition.Gridlock'd
Excellent Movie but skimpy on the features April 8, 2009
C. Demke (Hillsboro, OR)
This is an excellent absolutely hilarious movie that no die hard Tim Roth fan can turn down. Both Roth and Tupac give amazing performaces and portray a believable friendship that can translate through the ages. The DVD is really skimpy on extras but the movie is the most important thing!
rehab March 19, 2009
Lucania (Florida)
This movie has all of the action and reactions expected in an up and down drug movie. It has a few lighter moments but the fact is sometimes it's hard to get into public funded rehab. Very sad tupac can't enjoy it now.
gridlock' August 28, 2008
carver (roxboro nc)
a very good movie. the company that i purchased it from is very reliable. Tupac was very good in this film, if you want to laugh and cry at the same time this is the movie for you. trying to come clean with drugs but as always there are determents ahead.
Realistic Depiction of Drug Addiction March 9, 2007
Charles L. Hawes (Memphis, TN USA)
This movie gets 5 stars from me from the very realistic depiction of drug addiction and the performance of Tupac and Tim Roth. These two using buddies portray very real life issues and troubles of todays drug addicts. After rushing their musician partner to the hospital from a drug overdose they jump from problem to problem all the while trying to get help in kicking their habit. This movie has an excellent mixture of misery and humor that creates laughter and the hard face of realty at the same time. If you or anyone you've ever known has or ever had a drug problem you'll relate.
