I watched this movie tonight and I thought it was a nice subtle, yet comprehensive critique of the USA's obscene drug war. If you're not furious about the drug war yet, you're just uninformed.

Overall it was a good film. It was a little slow and needed some editing, but enjoyable and succeeded in excoriating an American policy without turning into sheer whiny vitriol against America in general. That's hard to do, and lots of critics fail to avoid that trap, but this film did it well.

Also, Columbia appears to be some kind of hell hole, and the blame obviously lies squarely with us, the americans. It makes me sick. I feel better about invading Iraq than I do about what we've done to Columbia.


I will never, ever, as long as I live, vote for any candidate who doesn't fully endorse abandoning the insane drug war.
