Amazing, but still supercreeptastic at times.

Trainspotting is an extremely quick and witty dark comedy about a bunch of druggies and lowlifes trying to cope with life between heroin shots. It's hilarious and depressing at the same time, and gets bonus points for the excellent soundtrack. The movie also has Ewan McGregor at ...( read more)
i can't tell you exactly why i love this movie. maybe lookin in on the life of a drug addict is safer than being one.
Wow, good movie on drugs. Made me learn which ones to take and which ones to not! LOL
Un clásico junkie... "La naranja mecanica de los 90's"... quien dijo eso? quien sabe, pero a la altura si que está.
O tema pode ser até um pouco batido, mas a criatividade transforma uma velha história num bom filme.
The best film about drugs ever made. If you shoot up after watching this you are already an addict or totally mental. AND it's funny. OH, and the only good thing Ewan McGregor has ever been in.
Fucking awesome movie and the best I have seen about the hardcore drug lifestyle! Nice tasty smack :P
This is a very good film, promoting the real facts of what could happen!
The hallucination scene was good. I find the movie as a precious one. It has a very good story. The cast were so great! I didn' even recognized Ewan McGregor. (In the movie) I didn't even think that he will go back to heroin again but he did, the ending was good. I was entertained.
Well this was a nice treat for me, i absolutely enjoy this movie from beginning to end. A wild, freeform, Rabelaisian trip through the darkest recesses of Edinburgh low-life, focusing on Mark Renton and his attempt to give up his heroin habit, and how the latter affects his relat...( read more)
nice looking, pacey but no character. Comic book reality, just concerned with shocking and appearing edgy.
I can watch this movie times and times over! Definitely a must-see...
had been a while since I last saw this one... like 10+ years. and I still love it as much as I did when it was first released.
great film. ♥
The dead babies still freak me out, but it's such an awesome movie, it's worth it. Two of my favourite Ewens in one place!
All the best movies are the ones that not many people see. This is one of them.
music by new order and underworld? a baby crawling across the ceiling?
what's not to love?
Ewan Mcgregor lets audiences into the seedy underworld of the once problematic heroin problem that plagued Glasgow. Good movie.
fecking awesome, i think i liked this film more because it is filmed and based in scotland, but trust me i loved it!
it shows just how much pain and damage drugs cause,!
makes me proud to be scottish:)
amazing acting and amazingliy filmed! well done scotland!
Very gritty and graphic. Effective storytelling though, in spite of the things it deals with. It's technically in English, but you will probably want to turn on the subtitles. I'm taking half a star off the "worthwhile" rating of four stars because I don't think it was quite good...( read more)
just another fab irvine welsh book been turned into a grate movie looking into the lifes of drug addicts in there efort to escape reality in such a raw way .. i have to say i think it was very well done
