I'm clearly the minority here. I've just watched this movie all the way through and I couldn't see any point in it. Why was it made? Where is the plot, where is the drama? There wasn't even any action. It is about somebody who had nothing going for him and found himself at the heart of the drugs trade. George Jung, as portrayed, was a one-dimensional character, just like his mother and his wife. He made a lot of money and he lost it and ended up in jail. So don't trade drugs folks! Otherwise, so what? Not even Johnny Depp or Penelope Cruz could inject their flat roles with any interest. Maybe a film about the cops on his case might have been more interesting. The film, like the main character, was a wash-out.
