Requiem for a Dream Reviews
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
[It] may be a bummer to some audiences, so harsh is its view of the drug culture. But no one interested in the power and magic of movies should miss it.
San Jose Mercury News
Glenn Lovell
Both bleak and bleakly funny, appalling in its excesses and exhilarating in its execution.
Chicago Reader
Jonathan Rosenbaum
Unfortunately, once Requiem for a Dream accumulates all this elaborate and suggestive paraphernalia, it plummets in an inexorable, almost mechanical spiral.
Reel Talk Online
Candice Frederick
At times disturbing and always intense, this flick offers its own acid trip for viewers and is a first-hand look at four people who become trapped by their own hell.
Slant Magazine
Matt Noller
A gut-wrenching, formally adventurous masterpiece or an ugly, flashy piece of empty-headed propaganda?
Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Steve Murray
Film lovers with a high threshold for unpleasantness will get a contact high from Aronofsky's muscular manipulations of imagery and editing.
Chicago Reader
Lisa Alspector
A staccato narrative parallels the experiences and hallucinations of a woman on drugs with those of her son and his friends.
Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com
Christopher Kelly
If this is the future of cinema, I'd rather be home watching television.
Detroit Free Press
Terry Lawson
Conveys, visually, sonically and dramatically, the siren call of addiction like no other movie has.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Desmond Ryan
Aronofsky has fashioned a chilling vision that lives up to the caustic irony of its title and gives us a nightmare that is not lightly forgotten.
New York Post
Jonathan Foreman
A powerful fable about love and addiction that manages to be darkly humorous when it isn't graphic or harrowing in the extreme.
Houston Chronicle
Eric Harrison
It's a dose of speed, and you can't say no.
Austin Chronicle
Sarah Hepola
Requiem for a Dream is like a late-night ghost story that can only be told with all the lights out, and which haunts the memory long after you've left the theatre.
San Francisco Examiner
Wesley Morris
It's one of the most beautifully unpleasant movies ever made -- its reverse charge being that it is no fun at all.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Thomas
Aronofsky is so compelling, so visionary a filmmaker, he keeps us riveted to his film as tightly as Sara is to her TV set.
San Francisco Chronicle
Bob Graham
A phantasmagoria of self-destructive obsession that is so visually astounding it becomes its own saving grace.
Dallas Morning News
Chris Vognar
For the strong of stomach and open of mind, Requiem delivers some bravura filmmaking flourishes.
Denver Post
Steven Rosen
Dazzlingly high filmmaking.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Wilmington
Something like a poetry of degradation and sorrow.
Newsday
John Anderson
Dream proves a number of things: the audacity of director Darren Aronofsky's eye, the brilliance of Ellen Burstyn's acting and an apparent poverty of discernment or intelligence on the MPAA ratings board.
