This is a movie that is really well done, but at the same time it's not something I ever want to watch again.

I think it's the soundtrack which makes it so hard-hitting.

RFAD is an interesting, somewhat overdramatic portrayal of drug addiction and dealing, the character development and relationships are strong and gripping, and boy, the way the relationships unfold is absolutely brutal.
I don't think the "it's disturbing" comments should keep you away, it's probably not as bad as you think it will be. However the "it's unforgettable" comments are pretty accurate, which I think is, again, due to the soundtrack.
...Oh god!
That soundtrack!
Shit guys, I just have to keep praising the soundtrack for it is so fucking bleak and chilling.
SOUNDTRACK!
Watch the film - it isn't pretty.
8/10

Perhaps it's the years of hype, or perhaps the similar knock offs that have been popularized by Requiem for a Dream, but beyond some excellent performances and gruesome, startling scenes there wasn't a lot that surprised me in this film.

The unsympathetic portrayal of the characters leaves with the simplistic message: Drugs are bad.
