    Read @irvinewelsh.bsky.social's "Trainspotting". Watched the film on its November 1997 Channel 4 premiere, and again in January 2017 before going to see "T2 Trainspotting", but had never read the novel. Suspects the non-standard spellings/Scottish dialect on the first page had always put me off. 1/4

    T2 Trainspotting was a very good film, actually. And Danny Boyle is the greatest living director. Every film he makes is filled with so many incredible directorial choices. He has no fixed style or genre. Even his worst film (The Beach) has a bunch of cool stuff.

    I was very reluctant to watch “T2 Trainspotting” when it first came out, and I was so glad to discover that it ended up being a movie specifically about how all of the iconic male characters from the first movie were now too old with basically nothing to show for it.

    T2 Trainspotting (2017) Danny Boyle Biggest expectations i ever had for a movie. And it was worth it. I would like to, no, I need to, I yearn to see a movie adaption on The Decent Ride, the Juice-Terry book. Who wouldn't love to see Juice-Terry yapping about while doing outrageous things?

    One thing we’ve written in abundance is film reviews! So many great movies to look back on over the years, but as I grow older, and somehow less wiser, T2 Trainspotting is one that keeps coming to mind. And as we’re all about nostalgia right now, it’s the most fitting. loose-lips.com/index.php/20...

    Micro Movie Memo # 76 T2: Trainspotting An unnecessary sequel that brings everyone up to speed on where the cast wound up 20+ years later. No big surprises, but I like how the film handles Renton and where his deceit in the ‘90s eventually led him. 7/9 📽️ Film www.youtube.com/watch?reload...

    I love Danny Boyle as a director, and I'm so glad that 28 Years Later had some of the style of T2 Trainspotting, which is probs my favourite movie. Also Young Fathers, who I love because of T2 Trainspotting, made the soundtrack and it was SO GOOD.

    There should be a rule that no sequel can be longer than the original movie. For example, T2-Trainspotting is 20 minutes longer than the first film and only (maybe) a quarter as good. #movies #film

    T2: Trainspotting, by Danny Boyle. I wasn't as enamored by the first Trainspotting as others, so imagine my shock when its sequel blew me away. This is such a poignant, witty, and devastating look at growing up and old, and realizing you've left behind a promising future. Brilliant, brilliant film.

    A rather good sequel! 'T2 Trainspotting' is exactly what I expected it to be. Turns out, it was also exactly what I wanted it to be. I thought it was great! I mentioned in my review of the original that I didn't like the characters, at all. Whilst that is indeed the case for that film, in this follow-up it does a grand job at making you care for the main bunch more; well, aside from Franco but we don't talk about Franco. It probably is missing out on as much substance (pardon the pun), if only…

    OK...it may be bias, Trainspotting was one of my favorite movies, and one of the better, if frustrating, books I experienced in High School. And, I really want to avoid any hints towards the plot as....it might kill a lot of the humor for those that haven't seen it. So excuse the vagueness, but after watching it, you might see where its necessary from an entertainment not a twist standpoint. So...the bad: It is NOT "Porno" which breaks the heart because, well, "Porno" was absolutely hysterical,…

    To face a revenge threat! Okay the first film was good one. Then I thought it was unnecessary to make a sequel for it. But someone clarified that it was not made outside the novel to make money. It's indeed adapted from the sequel book of the original film's source. Though coming out 20 years later was the disadvantage. Except some praises it had received, particularly by its hardcore fans, it was average at the box office and I thought same as well. I did not like the story. It was just a…
