I loved it until I did heroin.

Also spun sucked ass I never liked it.

Fuck drug movies they never do them justice, the closest they came was Fear and Loathing and even that wasn't that great.

I think Trainspotting and Drugstore Cowboy are pretty good.  Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas was a pretty poor movie, which is unfortunate because the book was excellent, the director of the film and the actors are excellent: the film had so much potential, but it just wasn't very good.

Yeah, that's the only thing about requiem I didn't like.
I wish highs were like they showed in the movie :vaped:

atleast there was some truthful aspects to requiem for a dream. spun was the most horrible movie i've ever seen. the only thing that they got right in that movie is that meth users don't sleep. everything else was bullshit.

trainspotting and drugstore cowboy ftw!

edit: if you haven't seen drugstore cowboy, its on google video.

despite it's obvious anti-drug bent, I still enjoyed requiem.

of course it can't beat trainspotting or fear and loathing.

I liked both movies, but I'd say Requiem is clearly a better film.

PS: it's not about drugs.

I enjoyed Requiem.
It is probably one of my favorite movies actually.

But I can see why you might not like it.
It's an odd film for sure.
Everyone looks at it differently

watching requiem soberly versus fucked up.
I understood it a hell a lot more when I was fucked up :vaped:

I haven't read the whole thread, and the synopsis that was posted explains my opinion of the movie in greater detail, but I'm pretty sure that its less about "drugs are bad mmkay" and more about the parallel between Rx drugs and illegal drugs. 

Although the message is easily confused.

Human Traffic has more of a junkie story if I remember correctly.

Requiem for a Dream is amazing. It isn't a drug film anyway, so if you're focusing on the drug use then you aren't getting the whole film.

It isn't a drug film?

Something like Trainspotting. Requiem has drugs in it, but they aren't the main thematic point of the film. It's more about hopes/dreams/desire that sort of shit. IMO

i watched that movie when i was too young, and oh god it scarred me. i mean that is some dirty shit for a 12 y/o girl to see. i dont think it scared me away from drugs at all though, i think it was more of "wow there are some really sad, messed up things in this world"

as someone said, drugstore cowboy.


that's a good drug movie. then Trainspotting is still better then Requiem, but Pi (an earlier Afronofsky film) is better then that still, in my opinion. so Dream is mainly on the average, so i'd agree with the OP.

Candy, the movie, is ok.
