Sid and Nancy is a fascinating record of a volatile period in music history.

Once we sense a glimmer of talent and accept these people as human beings, the tragedy of their drug use resonates enormously.

This is a love story -- an unlikely, perverse, disturbing love story, but a genuine one.

They are more than zombies doing needlepoint on each other's veins. Both are brought to life in complex, deeply felt performances from two actors who have abandoned themselves to enormously demanding and difficult roles.

It's fascinating to hear the Sex Pistols' No Feelings again. This film makes me think it's their most powerful track.

Cox doesn't just plot an obvious decline: things do get grim, but he makes you care as you also despair for punk's cracked casualties.

Even if "Sid and Nancy" doesn't quite represent the imperfect perfection in which punk music so often traffics, Alex Cox's confident visual symbolism -combined with Chloe Webb & Gary Oldman's performances -grant it piercing volume and knotty shape.

There is some nobility in the film's relentlessness and single-minded focus, but not enough to redeem its lack of having anything much to say beyond what we get on the surface.

Sid & Nancy is a brutal tour de force.

Sid and Nancy has some claim on being the finest British film of the 1980s.

Sid & Nancy is an honorable try, but it could have been better had Cox found a way to imbue the movie with some of the sheer zaniness of his Repo Man.

Just a teensy bit tiresome: two addled junkies falling about and bellowing at each other for 112 long minutes.
