Though the movie may be too intense for some to stomach, the wonderful performances and the bleak imagery are hard to forget.

With spareness and unremitting cruelty, Aronofsky shows his characters' accelerated slide to destruction. It's an almost unbearably bleak view and its lack of any obvious redemptive moral message will revolt some. Aug 27, 2001 | Full Review…

[It] may be a bummer to some audiences, so harsh is its view of the drug culture. But no one interested in the power and magic of movies should miss it. May 8, 2001 | Rating: 5/5

At times disturbing and always intense, this flick offers its own acid trip for viewers and is a first-hand look at four people who become trapped by their own hell. Sep 12, 2017 | Rating: A | Full Review…
