You will really enjoy the shoting technics in this film by giving different colours for different areas. An average film with unpredictable end.

a very well presented pice of film showing the drug industry and the journeys involved of trafficing. good.

This movie is wonderfull!
Steven Soderbergh is the best dirrector of his generation.
Sex, lies and videotape made people look at his name twice and traffic made him the greatest of his time!
This is a must see!

This film is a hard one to review, its meant to be a really good film, well so the academy awards thinks so, but i have tried watching this film 3 times now and i just cant seem to get into it.

Its one of these films where it goes backwards and forwards between countries and times, and different scenes are filmed in strange colours...

Im going to try and watch it again but it seems to be a film you have to really concentrait all the way through and if you blink, you'll miss a vital part.

This is a film you will love or hate, I don't think there is a middle ground, and I can fully understand the previouse reviews on this film, as they both make valid points.
The first time I watched this film, it left me baffled and cold, I thought it was overrated.but one night whilst watching it on TV the film finaly opened up for me and left me hooked. This is not a easy film, as it does have a multi stranded story, from the perspectives of the drug cartels, the FBI agents and the wealthy dealers.
each story strand is shot with a different colour filter, and this does help push the story along. The film has a great cast including MICHAEL DOUGLAS, CATHRINE ZETA-JONES,DON CHEADLE, BENICIO DEL TORO & DENNIS QUADE. All are exceptional in this complex movie.
If you have not seen this film before, give it a go.But you have to be patient with it, and maybe give it repeated viewing, to find this is a Brilliant and Compelling movie.

its not a bad film not the worst ive seen. basically 4 stories (often sharing elements) of the drugs problem in the US. (see fear and loathing in las vagas if ya aint intressted in the "Problem of drugs" That films RAD BTW hehehe) Any way didnt deserve the ocsar nominations and is a tad over rated. 5/10 (im being very kind)

It's amazing to think that this film has been nominated for 4 academy awards, FOR WHAT. For the first time in my life i considered walking out the cinema and demanding my money back, this film was so boring its beyond belief. Catherine Zeta Jones is the worst actress ever and this film does not do her any favours, highlight of the film, well nothing, it has zero action, zero excitement, iv'e had more fun at funerals, this film is not recommended.
