Requiem for a Dream (2000)
watch this movie.
This movie goes there. It reaches into your mouth, yanks out your heart and stomps on it with stilleto heels.
Nothing can match the way this movie demonstrates the wrath of addiction. This addiction which lies completely in the characters own minds; eating them away. The characters are just ordinary helpless people with the junkie factor is thrown in there, making them unlovable. Regardless, you find yourself falling in love and becoming completely attached to them. This is probably due to the fact of the brilliant acting done, especially by Ellen Burstyn. She really is Sara Goldfarb in this movie. Also Jennifer Connelly is beautiful in that dirty junky way and plays her part perfectly. Jared Leto does a fine job, and not to mention is quite the looker in this movie. Also, I was surprised with how well Marlon Wayans did in such a serious role.
I don't want to spoil anything because this movie is best when you don't know what the f*ck is going to be thrown at you (which is how I viewed it; it was just a blockbuster movie picked at random, I didn't even read what it was about!) so be ready for the trip of you lifetime.
Girls v. Boys (2003)
A Waste of Time
G.V.B is another one of those Reality Shows that try to capture the audience by being "Real" and "Relateable." So right off the bat, you should know that it would suck. But not only that, it's worse then the rest of the reality shows, and I would gladly watch Laguna Beach instead of this.
I watched this because I was somewhat interested in Degrassi and so I thought that maybe this wouldn't be so bad. WRONG.
But I guess if you like to listen to a bunch of whinny teens bitching about useless boring drama, (WITH NO SEX APPEAL-- at least some reality shows have that, so its a little bit interesting but Girls Vs. Boys is like the clean version of real world) then you've tuned in to the right show.
