excellent movie!
amusing for sure but very sad, it starts out showing how much fun they were having getting high then how much it costs them. good movie, you almost experience the high with them.

If Someone You Know Uses Drugs, A Must See
This movie is grim and life altering. If you or someone you know thinks they are using drugs casually, they have to see this movie. Some movies glamorize drug use, but this is definitely not one of them. This movie is very hard to watch, but it is brilliant. If you are enabling someone you...

Perhaps the most disturbing movie I've seen.
This is absolutely beautiful . . . and devastating. It shows four characters trying to find meaning in their lives, trying to find love in their lives . . . but succumbing more and more to their addictions and delusions. There is hope all the while, and you can see it, while they can't. It's...

Unique Style. Graphic Reality. Good Movie.
This is a really good movie. Ever since my first time seeing it two years ago, I wanted to buy it. It isn't for everybody but it is a classic. I like the way it uses the music in the movie and seems to have a good soundtrack. It uses different camera styles, repetitions, and strong emotional...

"Drugs are bad, mmkay. You shouldn't do drugs, mmkay"
There is a lot of aesthetically pleasing and artistic camera and story work in this movie, but ultimately it comes off as an R-rated after-school special. It's not a matter of not liking sad stories. There are plenty of tragic tales that peak everyone's interest (Shakespeare anybody?) but this...

Sorry, but this is not a good film
This is one of the most overpraised, overrated films in existence. The director has a gimmicky, show-offy quality to his work- it's all style, little substance. And putting all of your characters through the wringer (in increasingly outrageous and unrealistically heinous ways) seems to me a cheap...

A Sobering Tale of Addition, Drugs and Broken Dreams
Elegant and melancholy, Requiem is an unsettling drama that is as beautiful visually as its subject matter is depressing. Each scene is excellently framed and contrasts in lighting, colors and settings allow the film's mood to parallel the highs and lows of the character's circumstances. As their...

No subtitle options??
On of the most amazing films I've got in my collection and offers no subtitle options for any language at all, not even English?. How can this be?. Did they just forget that there are other people out in the world that do not speak English?. What a bummer. From having this DVD as one of my...

One of the most overrated films of all time?
I give this film high marks for its editing and ability to hold true to its gut-wrenching focus from beginning to end. It's hard film to watch...but it also lacks much of a reason to.The story, if you want to call it that, starts and finishes at the same point. There is no beginning, middle or...
