INCREDIBLE film!

Rating: 7/10 (20 July 2001)

"Trainspotting" is a modern masterpiece. The despair and hopelessness of today's drug cultured youth is on full display in this quirky English film. Ewan Macgregor is magnificent as Renton, the charismatic "hero" of the movie. There is no better drug withdrawl scene ANYWHERE in movies. Keep your eyes out for toilet scene - you don't want to miss it. The movie is heartbreakingly real, and makes no apologies.
