addiction

Rating: 8/10 (3 January 2011)

Director Darren Aronofsky is really one of a kind. His films are the ones people are looking forward to see since Requiem For a Dream. And there's a reason for that. Requiem For a Dream is a brutal film. It's brutal because of the subject it handles which is drugs and addiction. It's also brutal how seriously and honestly it has shown to the viewers. It may shock more vulnerable people. It's a good drama still. It's a pressure-cooker so you may need extra focus to see that movie and get the point.
Well, what about cast? Ellen Burstyn is Oscar-nom, Jennifer Connelly is cute. Obviously the only serious role played in Marlon Wayans acting career, but he's OK. Jared Leto is one of my favorite musicians and he is getting my nod here as well.
I suggest to see this movie. It may say that, it's actually necessary to see for some guys. It's a little bit creepy but powerful.
