Whatever social commentary is intended in this cautionary tale, it is lost in the overall thematic murkiness, and the film is reduced to being a series of increasingly silly, ultra-violent episodes. Read full review

The lack of any likable characters ultimately undoes Urge. Kaufman and Stahl have made a classic party-throwers mistake: overrating the entertainment value in watching other people get high. Read full review

This gets a 4/10 for interesting visuals, decent acting and a serviceable script, but it felt incoherent at times. I probably wouldn't recommend it to friends, but I also wouldn't be against it if someone wanted to see it.

In not so many words, this film is "stylish but soulless"(from Christy Lemire).… Expand
