Robert Koehler

Variety

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.

New York Times

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.

Rated: 3/5

New York Post

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.

Rated: 3/4

Maitland McDonagh

TV Guide

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.

Rated: 2/4

Missed a golden opportunity to be the first (and probably only film) ever to be called "Cocaingel," but I digress.

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.

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.

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!
