Sid and Nancy (1986)

Rate: 4
Viewed: 7/05

7/05: The real Sid Vicious would've said, "Boring!" after seeing Sid and Nancy.

It's a depressing, nihilistic biopic with nothing to offer. Sid and Nancy just shoot up heroin and go down in the dark, ugly hole that'll kill them both shortly thereafter.

Chloe Webb, who plays Nancy, is annoying. Showing weak chemistry with her, Gary Oldman does a nice job of playing Sid Vicious who was quite young when he died at the age of 21. Either way, it's a good riddance of both.

All in all, Sid and Nancy is neither educational nor entertaining.
