Entertainment Weekly - Owen Gleiberman
It would be hard to imagine a movie about drugs, depravity, and all-around bad behavior more electrifying than Trainspotting.

Film.com - Unnamed
Keeps you engaged in this story of a memorable anti-hero for our times.

Chicago Tribune - Michael Wilmington
Heroin may be a downer, but Trainspotting definitely takes you up…a series of roaring, provocative, outrageous highs. [26 July 1996, Friday, p.C]

TNT RoughCut - Unnamed
Irresistibly bleak appeal.

Mr. Showbiz - F. X. Feeney
It's a disturbing film in the best sense.
