Hmmmm - Great movie but ...

Rating: Null/10 (14 April 2009)

Couldn't understand a word they said in some scenes. The thickness of the accents was hilarious, from an American standpoint. That's hardly a negative, though at points in time, it probably would have helped to have subtitles.
I always wonder if American accents are hard to understand for other English speakers ....
The movie is both funny and chilling. The characterizations are crystal, though the drugs aren't they might as well be crystal. The aching hunger for them, the stupidity of them, the knowledge of the stupidity of them and the aching stupidity of the hunger ... it all sorts of blends together in an admixture of agony and brutality and hilarity and perhaps hope.
