A great movie and a cult classic

Rating: 10/10 (25 January 2020)

This movie has been accused of glorifying heroin usage but that so untrue. This movie just like Requiem of dream. Shows the ugly side of addiction. Yes its black comedy same as its novel but not once does it show heroin usage in a positive way. Renton is a addicted and he struggles day after day to over come it. He eventually does spoil alert this movie is over 20 years old so no apologies by stealing money from his friends and becoming a clean addicted free person in the outcome. I absolutely love this movie cause it tackles a difficult subject and and leads us through the perils of a addicted who overcomes. A dark move yes but a great story regardless
