First of all, love the star: Leonardo De Caprio! He acted his role out so realistically I couldn't help but be so into the movie. Being a recovering addict myself, I relived the horror of what resulted from any addiction. Because this movie is based on true life events, it gives hope to those who are in the grip of the "disease" and lets them know there is a way out. For parents who feel their teenager(s) are possibily falling into that area of their life, this is a must see for the entire family (with precautions on the younger ages, of course).. I love this movie, and have shared it in a Chemical Dependency class, for recovering adedicts. Great applauds, and 5 star rating!! May God continue to bless the man himself (Jim Carroll) for sharing his lifes story with the world....Jim, may you continue to endure and prosper in all your endeavors..Read full review
This has all the ingredients of an awesome movie in my book!! Beautifully Casted, Well Written, Expertly laid out and based on true events!! This kept me glued to the screen from start to finish! We watch a Group of boys fall hard from a promising future down into the depths of evil & drugs where only the lucky get a chance to fight there way out and back on track. This has real lessons to teach those of us on the same track or possibly for those tempted to experience what initially appears fun. I recommend every parent to watch this with their teens! It is fulls of lessons without coming across as being a life lesson movie!!
I first watched this in the 90s as a teenager and I remember it being a very dark film. Watching it nowadays, it is really just a great movie. The young talents of DiCaprio and Wahlberg make this one of my favorite movies.

I had been searching for The Basketball Diaries dvd and it wasnt available anywhere... it here it is. Considering how hard it is to find, $11.99 was a great deal and the shipping was on time.

Great movie. I wanted to watch it again but it is not streaming anywhere so I bought the dvd. The dvd is in excellent condition and it was about the same price as streaming it once. Now I have it to watch anytime I want.
