I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
That was an excellent one.
In other words,this film is a surreal ride.
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
I watched this movie when i was 18. If this movie aims teens to think their actions twice, it worked for me. In college i did not lose myself, maybe i am overreacting but i am happy that i watched this before using some cool(!) stuff.
This film was 'sold to me' at the time as amazing by a friend who I think wanted to teach me a lesson. I watched this film with a friend and to start it was all good fun and giggles but by the end of it we were literally speechless.... Ignoring the fact that it's imaculately acted and made I give it ten stars purely for the impact it had on me as a person, how it made me 'feel' and the intensity of those feelings and how they have lasted with me for literally EVER! It's a scary film teaching a valuable lesson....
Watch it, I don't want to spoil it. Just know it isn't for everyone.
This film sucks. It is so overrated that it is not even funny. I am just sick of seeing so many 9/10 & 10/10 reviews for this crap film. It is all style over substance. At times it has decent visuals, a good soundtrack and okay acting, but the story is terribly mediocre. What I am about to say should not qualify as a spoiler, because I am keeping it so vague. The moral of the story really is just 'heroin is bad'... Are you kidding me? everyone knows that, especially heroine users. This film may use graphic nudity and violence to make that point, but there really isn't any more to it than that. Drugs are bad m'kay, and they can destroy your life. Everyone knows that, there is nothing clever, deep or profound about this trash. I think I might hate this film's fans even more than the actual film. They all think they are so bloody clever and anyone who doesn't like it, must just not have the patience or sophistication required to absorb such a modern masterpiece blah blah blah Bull S***!!! This film is completely overrated, don't waste your time.
