Drug movies are a dime a dozen, but it’s not everyday you get to see one with Game
of Throne’s Sophie Turner! This is 2019’s Heavy, and you’re in for a wild ride.
Spoiler alert. For those that want to watch the film on their own time,
links to the film are in the description. We open up to Seven and Madeline in bed,
but something is wrong. As he tries to shake her awake, we realize things are
worse than they seem when she continues to stay unconscious. He pleads with her over and over,
but eventually, we cut ahead to him holding the empty sheets and crying.
As Madeline’s voice narrates what’s about to happen, she warns us that the story we’re
about to witness is not a happy one. We see Seven and Pierre in a room talking about how
the woman that would make him get married will have to be the one and only. He jumps
straight from that topic to explaining how to handle taking drugs on a constant basis.
It becomes clear that Seven actually loves whatever girl he is talking about,
but he ends up ghosting her to go party with a friend and some girls. Later on,
Madeline goes to therapy to discuss the issues her and Seven are having. She talks about a big
fight the two of them had the night before, and we see Seven walk into the club the night before.
Seven sells to a regular customer, and when a woman comes out of the crowd,
he grabs hold of her and dances right up on her. Thanks to Madeline confronting Seven,
we find out that he actually ended up having sex with that girl in the same club’s nasty bathroom.
He tries to talk to Madeline, but she tries to make him understand that he can’t love her
if he continuously hurts her like this. Before she leaves, she makes it known that
she can’t quit him because she loves him, but she still can’t stand for being treated the
way he treats her. Soon, she ends up walking out, and Seven grabs something from his safe.
When Madeline’s therapist tries to see if she wants to leave, Madeline defends
Seven by telling her about how his brother is a reason for him being how he is.
She tells the therapist about Seven’s terrible upbringing, and she tries to explain that the
two of them have each other now. Yet, it turns out that after Madeline left the night before,
Seven was back at the apartment shooting up. Madeline tells her therapist that she even turns
to Heroin to get rid of her pain as well. She explains how Seven was actually her dealer
when they met, and he helped her through so much in the beginning. He helped her get through her
student loans, and when he saw how bad her addiction was, he tried to get her to stop.
Towards the end of their session, Madeline begins to think that maybe she shouldn’t
want to change him since he never wanted to change who she was.
When Madeline returns to the apartment, she finds Seven unconscious on the floor from the Heroin.
After she gets him in the shower, she helps bring him back, and the two of them lie in bed
and talk about how they feel. Seven tries to let Madeline know that he’s done hurting her,
but Madeline also explains that she isn’t going to keep trying to change him. He doubts everything,
but Madeline makes sure he knows that he’s a much better man than he gives himself credit for.
The next night, Seven comes home after a rough night dealing, and he explains the day to her.
Seven starts the day meeting up with his childhood best friend, and the two of them catch up at a
local diner. Seven told his friend, Dave, that he had met the one, and they finish eating their
breakfast. When they’re done, Dave gets Seven to come outside to talk business. Dave has a deal
he’s playing middle man for, but they need someone with the product. Sure enough, that person is
Seven, or at least they’re hoping it will be. Seven tries to tell him that this entire deal goes
against his rules, but Dave keeps pushing. He finally comes out and asks Seven to front him
a brick of Heroin, but that’s 150,000 dollars that Seven isn’t comfortable
floating. After Dave plays up how he needs help, he convinces Seven to at least meet up
with Rodrigo, and that’s exactly what he does. Once he meets Rodrigo, he explains how all of this
random contact seems a little suspect, but Rodrigo reassures him that he is strictly there to conduct
serious business. When he brings up Seven’s supplier, Seven starts to take the meeting
a little more seriously, and Rodrigo takes him to the back where he offers him 240,000 dollars
for two bricks of Heroin. Seven tries to make him understand that he wants to stay small time,
but Rodrigo assures him that he only wants these bricks so he can establish a network.
Sure enough, Seven grabs as much money as possible to get the bricks,
and he goes to his supplier, Yuri, to get the bricks. When Seven tells Yuri about his plan,
Yuri hopes that he is being careful, and he warns about getting into the big leagues like this. He
offers to give him a gun and people to follow him to the deal, but Seven reassures him that
he’s got everything under control. When he goes to meet Rodrigo, he gets a
call from Dave saying that the meetup had been changed, but when Seven gets there,
a man in a mask answers the door and brings him in at gunpoint. When the gangster asks him where
the brick is, Seven tries to tell him that he didn’t bring it with him, and the two robbers
knock out everyone and take the cash. Rodrigo’s men wake him up and set him up,
and soon, Rodrigo himself calls on the cellphone. As the two of them converse,
Seven makes sure that he knows it wasn’t him that set any of this up, and Rodrigo
assures him that the men who did this would be dealt with harshly. From here on, they will be
communicating directly to each other, and Seven realizes that Dave is in for a world of hurt.
After finishing his story, he tells Madeline that there is only one thing she can do to help him,
and it’s to get some Heroin ready for him. She expresses her disapproval for the request,
but he explains to her that if there ever was a time that he needed it, it was now. She explains
to him that she’s going to give him the same rules he did when she was trying to get sober, so if he
was going to shoot up, she was going to too. After she shoots him up, she lies down and gets
ready to do her dose. She says it’s only a tiny amount, and the two of them pass out together.
When he wakes up, we see the same scene as we started with. He tries to bring her to,
but instead, we are flooded with terrible memories of a car crash that injured his little brother
and family members that call him a curse. Moments later, the authorities arrive in Seven’s
apartment to take away Madeline’s body. When Seven returns, he does as many drugs
as he can in a short amount of time before he emotionally loses it and falls asleep on the bed.
When he wakes up, he calls Rodrigo to ask him to let him handle Dave as payment for the bricks.
Seven heads to Yuri’s office, and he explains what happened. He tells Yuri that they all have to go,
and he has no idea what his future holds now that Madeline is gone.
Yuri gives Seven a gun with a silencer, and he begs him to let him send men to go with him.
Instead, Seven simply asks him to find Dave for him, and he heads out to handle his business.
Once Seven finds out where he’s going, he gets all of his supplies and heads upstairs to handle
business. He busts the door open and shoots one of them, while he holds the other at gunpoint.
Eventually, he gets them restrained and sits down to talk to them. When he asks one of them if he
knows what he took from him, the man tries to be defiant, but Seven simply shoots him
in the head and moves on to the other man. Now, the second man is a little more receptive
after watching Seven shoot his friend, but when he can’t get the answer, Seven tells him that he took
everything from him. Of course, the man doesn’t understand what that means, and he
goes back to talking about the money. He laughs at Seven when he tells him that Dave set him up,
but when Seven asks him how they got in touch with Dave to give him his cut, he finds out that
the robbers ended up setting Dave up too. So, Dave never got his cut, which was supposed
to be half of the brick. When Seven asks why Dave would want half a brick, he finds out that Dave
is a fiend, and he’ll shoot up with whatever he can get his hands on. Seven goes to the bedroom
and grabs the prepaid phone that they used to get in touch with Dave, and he makes the guy get in
touch with him to convince Dave to meet him. Dave ends up not answering, and Seven asks the guy
what they did with the money. After finding out they hid it on top of the toilet, Dave calls back.
The robber convinces Dave to meet him within the next two hours, or he won’t get his cut of
the Heroin. Seven applauds his performance, but after he thanks the robber for doing his part,
he shoots him to death. Next, Seven goes to get the money,
and he finds out that they ended up spending 50,000 of the money already. There is still
a good chunk of change though. Then, he sits and waits for Dave to arrive. Finally, a knock comes
from the door. When he answers the door, Dave sees Seven standing there with a gun pointed at him.
He tries to run, but Seven is faster. After Seven ties Dave to a chair, Dave tries to
plead for his life, and he tries to act like he’s just going to forget everything ever happened.
Then he turns around and blames Seven for ever turning him onto drugs, because he’s the reason
he started in the first place. Dave tries to walk him through their relationship, but the spirit of
Madeline calls out from behind Seven. Seven slowly points the gun at Dave and pulls the trigger.
After he sees what he’s done, Seven can’t believe how far he’s gone. He doesn’t
believe that any of this is who he really is, but it’s too late to change anything now.
He leaves the three dead bodies in the room, and he heads into a taxi downstairs.
He calls Rodrigo to tell him that everything is taken care of, and he concludes his business.
He gets the taxi to stop at a storage facility where he drops the backpack of cash,
then he heads to a library. Seven ends up finding his brother that he has been
avoiding all this time, and he sits down to have a long overdue talk. As a parting gift,
he gives his little brother the keys to the storage unit he just dropped the money off in.
Seven tells him that he’s proud of him, and he says his goodbye. His brother tries to apologize,
but Seven tells him that it was all his fault. As his little brother says goodbye,
Seven goes outside, and he gets ready for what he has to do next.
That night, Seven heads back to his apartment where he sets a bouquet of roses on the bed.
He plays Madeline’s favorite song, and he heads over to his safe where he pulls out Heroin.
He rolls his sleeve up and preps the needle. In a quick moment, we see that Yuri and Rodrigo
handle business in their warehouse, and with that, Seven shoots up his last dose.
Seven dances his last dance, and he shoots up his apartment in the process. Downstairs, police have
been called due to the gunshots, and they believe that Seven might be the one they’re looking for
about the other dead bodies. As the police burst through his door, Seven sees Madeline,
and he tells her that he is about to go out in the style he always wanted to.
With that, police flood his room, he pulls his gun out, and they shoot him until he’s dead.
Heavy is an interesting addition to the drug scene films that are already out there.
With a great cast and emotional sense of vengeance, it’s a fresh film in an
otherwise stale market of drug films. Thank you for watching, and I hope you
