Trainspotting has the emotional range of a fridge magnet.

Even the popcorn looked bored during Trainspotting.

If Trainspotting was a meal, it'd be unsalted rice with extra ego.

Watched Trainspotting so you don't have to. You're welcome.

[Spoilers] Can we discuss that absolutely baffling ending in Trainspotting?

Look, I wanted to love Trainspotting. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.

Why does no one talk about how mid the writing in Trainspotting actually is?

Just got out of Trainspotting and I'm convinced critics are being paid in residuals. Two genuinely good scenes do not make a film. Convince me otherwise.

The cinematography in Trainspotting is doing all the heavy lifting and it shows

Rewatched Trainspotting last night and noticed even more plot holes than the first time. The motivations don't track at all once you stop and think about act two.
