    the night that i watched this movie i dreamed of shooting heroin and doing cocaine. this movie is completely heartbreaking and disturbing. this is the most depressing and disturbing and yet beautiful movie i have ever seen. everything about this movie is amazing. the editing and the soundtrack is beautiful. this is the hardest movie to watch ever. darren aronofsky did an amazing job directing this movie.

    A great movie about grave desperation and being blinded and delusional. Defnitely not a feel good movie. The editing and visuals were phenominal, and the soundtrack was incredible. Depressing yet powerful ending.

    an iconic, beautifull, disturbing masterpiece in its own right. everything from the montage sequences to the stunning score. Aronofsky had me at hello.

    Very disturbing film---right up there with Trainspotting as one of the best anti-drug films ever made.

    a damn good movie, great editing, one of my favorites but didnt influence me in the slightest on the whole drug use prevention front. thats a choice you have to make and if your gonna watch this film just to convince yourself not to try drugs then dont watch it. thats not the point of this movie. this movie is a peephole into the lives of people who are victims of circumstance, lacking the will power to overcome said circumstance and consequently attaining their just rewards. watch it because its edgy and because it is a masterpiece of modern cinema not because you think its an anti-drug propoganda campaign.

    This has to be one of my favorite movies of all time. It is so real and something everyone should see before they die. Everything about Requiem for a Dream is amazing from the acting to the soundtrack to the direction, I love it. It is one of those movies that you see once and can't stop thinking about.

    I loved this movie,
    I loved every part of this movie!
    I think that its so realistic and it got to the point, and it got a message across, Yes I dont think 12 year olds should be watching something like this, but maybe they should. Maybe they should see what drugs do to people. Yes it doesnt happen to all people, but it a wake up call.
    Besides every actor in this movie is great, Especailly Jared Leto!

    this movie is like a miniature of life. everything runs fast, you watch them push off a million times, then you see sara goldfarb and her addiction to pills, swallowing them in groups... it really grips on to the pit of your stomach and flips it araound in the air... anyone who sees it, who really sees it must have been touched by it. everybody there is humiliated and their lives are ruined... and they never saw it coming...
    real life, real life.
    you pity them all
    you say i'm so lucky
    you feel like a horrible person for wanting more with your life
    and you just want to kill yourself
    this film rocked my world, it shocked and amazed me. i haven't felt anything near what i felt with this movie abt any other movie. masterpiece. a big applause for the creator.
    masterpiece indeed... even the direction just swirls you down. beautiful.

    Movies are created to evoke emotions when watched. Anyone who watches this movie feels what the director wants you to feel. Wheather you're heavily familiar with the characters or ghastly disgusted with them, you feel something. And that is exactly what director Darren Aronofsky set out to do. Hate this movie or Love this movie; give it 4+ for a job-well-done!
