... and it kinda sucks? Dgmw there are things I liked about it (Ellen Burstyn and Jennifer Connelly give great performances) , but between the gimmicky edits and the palpable lack of insight into drug use/abuse/addiction, it just comes across as a less entertaining Reefer Madness. Imho.

I haven't seen it. I think the only other film of his I've seen is Noah, which was a bit rubbish imo (but I wasn't expecting any better from that one)

EDIT: I just checked and I also saw Pi years and years ago, and thought it was a load of old shit lol. I guess I'm just not an Aronofsky head
