    The most perfect anti-drug movie. Psychedelic and avant-garde camera language and editing. Apart from the male lead who lost his arm, the old lady who was constantly receiving electric shocks, and the female lead who slept with a smile while curling up with money through physical transactions, I felt the most miserable. The most hopeless endings are usually found in the short-lived otherworldly happiness after such an embarrassing life, and then fell hard and can't do anything about...

    The impetuous editing, the dry narrative, except for the cruel pictures, still did not jump out of the mainstream Hollywood movie...

    Everyone has one addiction: vanity, drugs, money, even insatiable love. The editing and soundtrack of the movie were done to the extreme. I remember being scared when I watched it for the first time, especially the sleepwalking scene when Marian went down the stairs. At the end, everyone returned to the original scene—— - Best alert. This is the third time I've watched the movie, and I still feel the same way, once I watch it, it hurts once, I watch it once, and die...

    Total despair, uniform black from the first minute to the last frame, a utterly hopeless stream of consciousness. Shots, edits, soundtracks, the new wave cinematic language that Aronofsky gave back at the end of the twentieth...

    The last 20 minutes made my heart beat faster, and I wanted to press pause several times to slow down. It's too dark to give you any hope. The soundtrack and cut actors are...

    Each leading role is really in place, like the mother from fat to thin, from normal to auditory hallucinations, the hair, wrinkles, let you truly understand the meaning of the word "drug" in drugs, and the high-speed switching of drug use and so on. , Does it imply that life is such a high-speed switch, so you can't waste your time. Drug addicts don't end well! !...

    Whether it's pictures, acting, plot or music, this movie has given me unparalleled visual enjoyment. Why didn't I discover it earlier? If there are six stars, I would give it without hesitation. In the second half of the plot, which took a turn for the worse, the burning sensation of the disillusionment of the dream was all given to me, given to me....

    In the process of gradually deepening the plot, gradually heavy soundtrack, and gradually compact rhythm, the movie-watching experience has changed from depression to suffocation and then to a strong sense of vomiting. This kind of tension is so great that a movie that produces mental depression will make people have a shadow of watching the movie, and maybe there will be a kind of disgusting fear after seeing the three highly expressive male and female protagonists in the future. The scale of...

    The first protagonist was amputated because of drug injection, the second protagonist sold his body and self-esteem for drugs, the third protagonist entered the prison and was abused by the prison guards every day; This may be a tragedy, because Lu Xun said that tragedy is to tear up beautiful things for readers to see. But it is precisely because of the tragedy that this movie is suffocating to...

    One of the sharpest anti-drug movies. The soul-stirring soundtrack and eerie, terrifying footage make the film feel more like a horror movie. 9...
