Critic Reviews of "Trainspotting"
Orlando SentinelJune 26, 2013Trainspotting's saving grace is that there's a heck of a lot of entertainment value in this particular form of shallowness.
Philadelphia InquirerJune 26, 2013Trainspotting, buoyed by a great Brit Pop soundtrack and Brian Tufano's agile cinematography, captures the stoned-out, gut-churning experience of hardcore addiction with hallucinogenic acuity.
SlateJune 26, 2013The characters are without recognizable virtues, and neither they nor the movie asks us to like them. But they are full of energy and underplayed wit, endlessly picking themselves up off the filthy floor.
Chicago TribuneJune 26, 2013Trainspotting is a searing pop-art portrait of a lost generation blowing out its brains. As they rail, chuckle, shout and dive into darkness, you're trapped yourself between a bellylaugh and a scream.
TIME MagazineJune 26, 2013The film is about joy -- in conniving and surviving, in connecting with audiences, in its own fizzy, jizzy style. And that's why, compared with it, most other films look zombified.
Washington PostJune 26, 2013A cocktail of scuzzy charm, nerve and despair that seduces and repulses in nearly equal proportions. It packs a jolt, all right. But it leaves you with a brutal hangover, too.
Observer (UK)January 16, 2017What's interesting, viewing the film now, is how it manages to be both inarguably of its time, the mid 90s, but also has not dated nearly as badly as most youth culture movies tend to.
GuardianJanuary 12, 2017Trainspotting is supercharged with sulphurous humour and brutal recklessness: it charges at you like Ewan McGregor's Renton sprinting from store detectives in the opening sequence.
ProcesoMay 03, 2016Trainspotting is a look to a better world while you're down and stuck in the mud. [Full review in Spanish]
Butaca AnchaApril 01, 2016A cult film because of it's particular way to deal with dark themes in a different way. [Full review in Spanish]
