Review of Traffic

Traffic (2000)
10/10
Terrific, realistic, intelligent
20 June 2001
If you like movies which point out right at the beginning who are the good guys and who are the bad guys - don't watch TRAFFIC. If you like movies without any plot-twists and with a happy-end - don't watch TRAFFIC. If you like movies with a clear and simple message (like "drugs are bad and we must fight against them")- don't watch TRAFFIC. If you are not able to follow three consistent, absolutely logical stories within one movie - don't watch TRAFFIC. If you don't like Mexicans who speak Spanish instead of English with a Spanish accent - don't watch TRAFFIC. If you don't tolerate movies, that last longer than 100 minutes - don't watch TRAFFIC. If you like intelligent and consistent screenplays, terrific, unobtrusive acting (especially by Don Cheadle, Benicio del Toro and Catherine Zeta-Jones), realistic treatments of a complex problem and a realistic atmosphere due to unusual camera-technique - then you simply have to watch TRAFFIC.
