Requiem for a Dream (2000)

I watched this movie in my tender childhood...
my parents, of course, in a good purely human way, but still, I think it was this film that shaped my attitude to drugs. I'd rather please myself with passions like collecting minerals and so on, and then languish like a pig over them, than like this.
In fact, I'm sure that if I review the film, I'll see it completely differently, and that's probably why I don't want to review it)

Up to yeast is a strong drama

The film is worth watching for anyone who has romantic rose-colored glasses on their nose regarding drugs and narcotic drugs.

When I lived in a student dormitory, we usually went around the neighbors in the evening to pick up new movies to watch. So "Requiem for a dream" was almost every student, in all rooms, on all floors)) the most popular dorm movie)))

The film may be heavy, but it directs thoughts. using the example of the film, we are shown what happens if you choose the wrong path to your goals. it encourages you to weigh your decisions, otherwise there is a great chance to get into such a jungle, from which it is difficult to get out later. I recommend this film to those who have stopped understanding why they live.
plus, you can highlight just great camerawork, shoot in a special beautiful and original way. A strong movie, at least for me

At first, I didn't like the film: The moments when the screen is divided into two scenes are terrible. The characters do not cling, rather they repel. But that's the whole aesthetic of the film. Gradually, it accelerates, and when the mother starts taking medication, the film becomes fascinating. The musical accompaniment is very good. The work of the operator is interesting.

Heavy film

I watched this movie as a child and childhood is over

it seems like a typical movie about gerich. but the graphics, editing and camerawork are right at an excellent level. Well, for the scene with Jennifer Connelly, a fat plus.

It shows the vices of people without stopping, of course there were films where the presentation is more rigid, but everything is right in harmony here, I can't say that it looks in one go, since some moments cause negative emotions, but it is very interesting

The film is quite difficult to watch, the topic of drugs is perfectly revealed, literally from all sides) After watching it, there was a slight discomfort, but the film itself is beautiful, beautifully shot and in all the details, even the vile ones.

Great movie

I would poke my nose into this film to those of my former acquaintances who used or are using and believe that there is nothing dangerous in this, it's to relax...
A heavy film, I couldn't review it again

If I were asked which movie I wouldn't watch again, I would call this one🥲

It's a very heavy movie, the music is so in general, but I advise you to watch it

I couldn't see it to the end..

One of the most beloved films of all time. I watched it many times as a child, and still remembered the main musical theme by heart. The soundtrack is simply a masterpiece, transforming and becoming more intense as the inevitable end approaches, overgrown with new instruments and sounds that perfectly match what is happening on the screen. The directing and cinematography are excellent. The acting is on the level. The plot is top. You can, of course, find fault with the fact that actors with model looks (I saw comments saying that this does not happen in life, and in general it is a cheap trick so that the audience immediately gets into them), and what is very strangely coincidental that both GG and his mother both got hooked on drugs, and independently of each other, but I absolutely do not want to do this, because it all works. Even knowing the ending and understanding what's going to happen, you still look at the characters when they're still doing well and hope for the best. Well, the denouement is powerful and unadorned. This time I looked at the background of a terribly aggravated anxiety disorder and the most severe withdrawal syndrome due to a change of treatment, and damn, I felt like I was in the shoes of heroes who just wanted to take another damn dose so that all this hell would at least temporarily end, without thinking about what would happen next. Anxiety after watching, by the way, worsened even more (but it was worth it)

I watched it several times in different periods of my life, but I didn't have a strong impression. The music is beautiful and plays a huge role in the film and sets the right tone for it, the situation itself is too real to be surprised.

What a horror

I was taken to the cinema with the class in class 5-6 to see this film, and there I saw sex on the big screen for the first time, but then I tried drugs anyway — it's good that I didn't like it, but many of the company I tried with ended up really badly

drug vaccination. the film very clearly shows that you should not even think about taking drugs. Scarier than any horror movie

One of the heaviest films in recent times. It was very difficult to watch the last 20 minutes.
Of course, the topic of drugs is key here. But it also talks about dreams. That both this group and Harry's mom wanted to fulfill their dream, and quickly.
This one wanted to lose weight without doing anything. So is Harry and his business. Sell drugs quickly and start a business. That's why the name of the film is like that.
The last scenes are a bit harsh, of course. 😣
I definitely advise you to watch it

They wanted to fulfill their dreams, but they got ruined lives...

I expected more trash, but I was not very impressed and it was easy to watch, for me personally it is not heavy at all, it will go for one time

I watched the movie in my early childhood, and I watched it again as an adult. Such a deep film and psychologically difficult incredible!

I watched with excitement!

ужас 😵‍💫

The film is a masterpiece about the topic of drugs and their effect on humans. I've been reviewing it for the umpteenth time, it still feels like the first time at the end. 🔥

It's very hard, after this movie you sit and stare at nothing. He is unrealistically catchy with his cruel realism and scares her.
The actors are gorgeous. The scenery, installation and most importantly, the music begin to escalate from the first minutes, flowing into a explosive finale, which you watch with wet eyes and horror inside.

10/10

An interesting film is good , but heavy in my opinion it is even harder to review

I watched this movie when I was 16 years old. Then he made a shocking impression on me. After that, all offers to try "free" drugs were immediately rejected. I just watched it again with my 16-and 15-year-old sons. I specially arranged a viewing for them. I think that this film should be included in the compulsory school curriculum in high school. It illustrates the effects of drug use very well.

After this film, he became a drug addict himself

It's a great movie. Watch all teenagers as anti-drug propaganda…

I didn't see anything terrible in this film-cruel and heavy, as many people write here. Compared to the real state of affairs in the circle of hard-core junkies, everything that is shown in Requiem for a Dream is childish. Everything in life is 1000 times scarier.

P.S. I'm waiting for the disadvantages that myshows are so fond of giving to those whose opinion goes against the majority opinion.

What you liked: the soundtrack.
What I didn't like: everything else.

I watched this movie as a child. Now I decided to review it and it stunned me.
When he was a kid, he was about drugs. Now about the dream. And this movie has turned my whole mind upside down now, because I live in exile. And now I'm in a stupor, but am I doing everything right, going to my dream?

It's beautifully shot, I'm thrilled.

The masterpiece of all time

The pain of my youth

After rereading the comments, you can't help but wonder: why did you all watch it in childhood? 😆

It's an incredibly difficult film, especially for fans of romantic smoking and other novelizations of alcohol and drugs.

Probably the hardest movie for me. From the second half, the horror begins, which does not subside until the very end ... The soundtrack is beautiful, but still I was not ready for this.😅

At first glance, it may seem that the film is about drugs being evil. But the film reveals other problems: self-destruction, addiction, what is a person willing to do for the sake of his dreams?The mental and physical state of the characters at the beginning and at the end of the film is perfectly shown, which was led by their unrestrained pursuit of a dream. The soundtrack, probably familiar to everyone, keeps the viewer in suspense, large camera angles and repetitive actions immerse the viewer in the life of the hero, and reflect cyclicity and isolation in their routine. And a terrible ending for each character as the final culmination of their dreams. I rate the movie 4/10 or 8/10

A movie with meaning, but I can't understand one thing, is it really that easy for doctors to give so many pills containing drugs to a woman who just wants to lose weight?

The most beautiful thing about this movie is the soundtrack. Everything else is just terrible. Not in terms of the quality of the film itself, but in terms of showing how drugs destroy...

I almost lost my mind while I was watching.

Everything in the film is exaggerated, but it's still worth seeing how roughly human degradation occurs due to drugs.

It chills to the bone. It is important to remember that the outcome is always the same.

I finally watched this movie! I make allowances for the fact that the 2000 film and the creators did not know that in the future they could show more and tougher, but it was very bright for its time!

The way it was shot at the macro reception is very stylish and tasteful.

and the movie itself is dark. for those who have visited, check out the TV series "withdrawal", it's about opioids in the states, an amazing movie with the same vibe. it's hard to watch how each character kills himself in his own way, and then ends up either in a nuthouse, or in prison, or with amputation, or sells himself until he commits suicide.

if I had watched the movie as a teenager, I would have paid more attention to the actors, young Jared Leto, what is it, is he exactly 28-29 here??

In short, I understood why everyone recommends him.

I love the movie for its naturalness. The problem of humanity and their dependence is very plausibly shown.

This film has left a clear imprint that "Drugs are evil"! I watched it as a teenager.

A heartfelt film

I watched the first half of the movie with all my might, and then I was blown away.… Just a tin can. It's a great movie. Strongly

The cool moral of the film and the contests are interesting
Get top marks for displaying what? Drug addicts who don't even look true?
A beautifully made film from the editing side, but editing won't help reveal the murdered characters in the murdered script.
