Traffic Release Year: 2000 Average Rating: Last Reviewed On: August 1, 2001 (by Scott) (DVD version) Scott's Review: on August 1, 2001 I think this movie was more of an interesting movie on a technical level than anything else. It took several diverse stories and showed them together with what seemed like different director styles for each sub-plot without losing too much cohesion from the main film. The really big problem I had with the movie was I felt the sub-plots never became part of a bigger plot, and there wasn't really an ending. The movie just ended, for no real good reason that I could ascertain, and none of the sub-plots fit together in any real grand way. In short, I left feeling that the war on drugs is hopeless, and I suspect that was the whole point of this movie. While I can agree with the message, it wasn't worth watching the movie to have it reinforced. -- Scott and Michelle |
