Like spotting a trainwreck with only one survivor...

Rating: 8/10 (16 February 2017)

I'm a huge fan of Danny Boyle because he's some kind of Director- chameleon, every movie he makes is different in tone, style, or approach to the story. So i wanted to watch Trainspotting for a long time, but there were always movies i watched instead, until now when i heard that Danny Boyle would make his first sequel like...ever. So that gave me enough interest to watch it for the first time.
And it was pretty good. Stylish as and imaginative like all of his movies, but with a theme which is actually hard to watch, because of how great the movie portrays the use of drugs and the effect of addiction. (And i personally hate needles...so that's a plus)
Ewan McGregor is one of my all-time favourite actors and always great, and most of the other cast i just new from other Boyle movies, besides Johnny Lee Miller who is great in "Elementary".
The soundtrack is great, because of a ton of licensed music, which gives the movie it's energetic feeling...
...which also comes from the awesome direction. The best part of this movie is that it's fast paced and never get's dull, so that you feel exactly like the characters when they are on drugs, and it get 's a bit slower and more feverish when they are on withdrawal.
It's fun but also disturbing, light one moment, dark the other...it 's great entertainment, but also kinda educating and seriously against drugs. I like it, and so could you...
