disturbing, yet thought provoking.

Rating: 9/10 (6 August 2002)

Every once in a while you see a film that sticks with you a few days after seeing it. Requiem for a Dream is one of those films. It is a truly disturbing look at drug addiction that features some incredibly good performances from all actors, especially Connelly and Burstyn. Some may find the technical aspects from the film a bit "artsy" but I enjoyed this film nevertheless. I don't know if it is the kind of film I could watch over and over but it definately warrants at least one viewing. Check it out, you will be glad that you did. 8/10
