Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

Honey Boy (2019)

Troubled young actor is sent to rehab and, while there, digs into the source of his behavior. Much of the story is told in flashback, when he was a child actor and his father served as his chaperone. I was left wondering how in the hell a felon and addict was ever entrusted with the care of his young son. 

While I felt for the kid in the story, I could not translate that into any kind of sympathy for Shia LaBeouf -- who wrote this autobiographical script. He's still a piece of shit.
