DO NOT BE FOOLED, this movie is terrible.

Rating: 1/10 (29 January 2002)

This movie takes drug addiction and turns it into a joke, but its not funny, and its not truthful. After watching this movie I wanted to vomit, but that did not make me feel the movie had accomplished anything. "Trainspotting" was the first in your face drug movie and it handles the subject with much more candor, wit, charm, and truth. The characters in Requiem For A Dream do not stay with you, all you learn about it their stupidity, not their lives. The interesting Direction and visual storytelling cannot replace powerful characters or a half-decent story. Do not be fooled, this movie is terrible.
