This is a really good movie. Normally I would watch movies a couple of times (at least) if I like them .. I don't think I'll do that with this one though !! 7.5/10

It may be one of the best movies I have ever seen but I sure as hell don't want to see that movie again cause it was way too intense, from the part when the old lady has gone nuts, I almost could'nt even take it but it was a really good movie still. never a movie made me feel emotion like that in my life but this is really something.

@accuser It's strange you got the plot but didn't get the plot... The whole meaning behind this film is no matter how you try to go about it, in the end hard drugs and addiction will always bring you back down to nothing.


Darren Aronofsky is an amazing director and this is one of his best, I'm really struggling to figure out what you disliked so much about this movie... You're not supposed to feel sorry for anyone it's more of a precautionary tale.


Personally I love this movie. 9/10

I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS MOVIE.
It is MAYBE a 4/10 star, at best. The plot wasn't saddening to me in the slightest: Sure, what happens to the older woman is tragic, but she should have known. The same goes for the rest of them: The other three (excluding the woman, who didn't appear to have much bad happen to her) got what they deserve. You can't do hard drugs and expect to walk away from it without harm. They were all idiots. This movie isn't one of the "saddest" movies of all time. Try "stupidest."

Never have I felt so much while watching a movie or for days afterwords. A wonderful film about some very dark things.

Intense, thrilling, clever, and sometimes hard to believing, but this movie is in the good sense hearthbreaking and chaotic.

Really amazing, and it's difficult to put into words how well made it is. Everything from the angles to the soundtrack was brilliant, and after being forced to watch this by my brother, I have absolutely fallen in love.

Requiem for a Dream is an excellent film. That is, not only because it uses great filmmaking techniques, but because it also deals with your mind. Funny enough, it's probably one of the most terrifying and haunting movies I've seen and it's not even a horror film.
Oh, and on top of that, it sucks the life out of you and leaves you feeling depressed for up to a whole week. So if you're looking for a real tear-jerker, I highly recommend this movie.
