A masterpiece if there ever was one!

Rating: 10/10 (23 July 2001)

After Pi I was confused, was the movie good or bad? Couldn't really tell so I had to watch it again, again and again. Finally I decided that Pi was, and is, an epic masterpiece.
Therefor I looked forward to Requiem For A Dream and the wait was well worth it. Requiem is nothing short of a masterpiece if there ever was one. The atmosphere is extremely dark and your gut twitches through the whole extravaganza. Just when you think it can't possible get any crueler/darker it sure does, and then again and again until the movie ends.
After watching, sorry, living, Requiem For A Dream you're left with a strange feeling in your gut. Is this possible? Problem is, it probably is!

Be happy for your own life and everytime you feel depressed make sure to load your DVD-player with Requiem For A Dream. It will make you feel a lot easier...
Requiem For A Dream is up there with The Godfather Saga, Naked, Samurai Trilogy, Das Boot, Stalingrad, Seven Samurai, English Patient, Le Grand Bleu etc.
