Rating: 7/10 (27 December 2017)

American Made (2017)
This is a semi-biographical crime film about a former TWA pilot who flew missions for the CIA and became a drug smuggler for the Medellín Cartel in the 1980s. It stars Tom Cruise, Domhnall Gleeson, Sarah Wright, Alejandro Edda, Mauricio Mejía, Caleb Landry Jones and Jesse Plemons. It received generally positive reviews from critics, who praised Cruise's performance. It did modestly at the box office. I found the film to be average, worth seeing, but not likely to be viewed again. Cruise was solid, but as expected, considering his talent.
