We risk sanity for moments of temporary enlightenment. So many ideas. So little memory. The last thought killed by anticipation of the next. We embrace an overwhelming feeling of love. We flow in unison. We're together. I wish this was real. We want a universal level of togetherness, where we're comfortable with everyone. We're in rhythm. Part of a movement. A movement to escape. We wave goodbye. Ultimately, we just want to be happy. Heh, yeah hang on, what the fuck was I just talking about?

the lyrics to 12th Street - Brain Damage. good choon.


i just love how in the film they do the thing about things that people don't say, but think and want to say.

Originally posted by Orbax yeah. The whole style is horrible. Story line isnt that great. If it had more to do with rave culture, it would be better. But even if I wasnt expecting a rave movie, it would be bad. No offense UKTAs, but the British arent known for the good film productions (cept the Monty Python woot!) I like the music that plays though. I dunno. I think its a C grade video. It has some weird shit, and the people arent good looking lol. Feels like an amateur film

without readin the thread from any further than this post, id say your very wrong, human traffic is one of the most spot on, down to earth clubbing movies ever. To those that have done drugs before, there is an immense similarity and likeness to how it really is... the portrayal of being fucked off your head.. a group of normal clubbers... the fucked up stupid guy [moff] the DJ [koop] the talking bullshit... the comedown, the afterparty aftermath, the blagging yourself into a club..... everything is 110% bang on exactly like what clubbing is like over here. Admittedly to a person that dosnt take drugs, this movie can be less interesting as theres not a lot relate to. but to a person like myself, as part of a group of unlikely friends, like in the movie, theres a tremendous likeness and meaning, as what is captured in the movie is what happens nearly everyweek to me [or atleast it used to].

im sorry you didnt like this movie but i feel its an absolute gem in its own right

thats why opinions exist hehe

Originally posted by Spad Have to disagree, the movie is just what it was supposed to be. A realistic film about UK club culture. I don't think anybody ever claimed it was a "rave movie". I'd call it a "weekend movie", and it pretty much sums up what your average UK 18-25 year old does between Friday and Monday. I can pretty much relate to every scene in some way...basically the film is wicked.

the Spadster is spot on... it is (or was - before GC went monthly) a fine example of the weekend in Blighty.

i saw this movie years ago and it's tops! cheers.

no, it was madonna's husband, guy ritchie

Just saw it the other day, and thought it was pretty entertaining.

I liked the direct way it tells the story, were you are drawn into the story from the start.

Quite fun also.

I have that dvd. Great movie with good humor and music.

Human Traffic, Trainspotting, Snatch, Lock Stock, Kevin & Perry... all gandalf. And don't you forget it

Human Traffic is THE best edm movie out there. No contest, it's real, beautifully acted and scripted, and very unique as well. What kind of movie do you like Einstein?

horrid movie.
waste of d/l time.

is it just me or does orbax sound like the kind of guy who thought the movie "go" was a really good depiction of rave and dance music culture?

What the fudge?

You are kidding?

This is on of the greatest movies ive ever seen, bloody funny and really realistic. Some of it makes more sense if you lived here!

9/10 from me
