    This movie... was one of the most powerful movies I have ever seen and is viewed by many to be one of the greatest movies of all time. It is a breathtaking, pleasing, mindboggling, horrific, emotional roller coaster that brings you through the lives of four seemingly good at heart people, who come crumbling down under the pressures of life, and under the influence of drugs.

    Four peoples lives, intricately intertwined with eachother have a sort of domino effect as one persons life gets bad, the others' lives do too. Seemingly real, and disgustingly graphic, this is among my top 3 favorite movies

    This movie is number 51 on IMDB.com's top 250 greatest movies of all time list for a reason, and should be placed higher.

    Fear and Loathing was a great movie but this had a different style and feel to it.

    Requiem for a Dream was a amazing movie and was very realistic.

    Great Review for a fantasic movie.
