Robert Koehler Variety 02/21/2007
Pitch-perfect central perf (by scribe and co-producer Damian Lahey), total lack of dramatic artifice and surreally situational humor make for a minor-key vignette of unmistakable, if unstable, authenticity. Go to Full Review
Jeannette Catsoulis New York Times 02/21/2007
3/5
We may learn nothing new about the grasp of addiction, but the movie's lean 75 minutes is at least a genuinely fast track to oblivion. Go to Full Review
V.A. Musetto New York Post 02/21/2007
3/4
Movies about addicts are a dime a dozen, but Cocaine Angel does its own thing, mixing humor with bleakness and resisting the too-common urge to romanticize addiction. Go to Full Review
Maitland McDonagh TV Guide 02/21/2007
2/4
Scrappy and defiantly deglamorized, this chronicle of a couple of long, useless days in the life of a down-and-out coke addict oozes miserable authenticity without giving you a reason to care. Go to Full Review

08/09/2014 Missed a golden opportunity to be the first (and probably only film) ever to be called "Cocaingel," but I digress. See more 06/04/2012 Not sure why I liked such a dark story about a man's wrecked life. Perhaps we each see a part of ourselves in this guy's unstoppable last spin. See more 04/10/2012 sad, harrowing, and sometimes even funny look at a couple's descent into the dark world of drug addiction See more 01/15/2011 Gritty. Story is a little jumbled. See more 11/12/2010 this was kinda interesting showed how addicts cant think well and always in a battle with themselves. the ending was kind of weird. The addicts have a delusion that everything is perfect as long as they are high, even though everything they own is falling apart or broken. See more 06/29/2009 Nothing more addictive than Lahey's portrayal of a hard-luck loser. While other drug/addict films peddle fantasy and happiness, this one gives you the hard stuff. 'Angel'show's those films where they can stick all that cheesy crap. Well-written dialogue and acting carry this film from start to finish. Call me when CA 2 hits the streets boys, im on board!
