Crime never pays.

Rating: 8/10 (22 March 2005)

Blow although based on the life of George Jung( the biggest cocaine dealer of 1970s) but its motto is age old concept of crime never pays.George Jung learned this and in a very hard way.
First word that came to my mind after i saw BLOW was amazing. The plot is extremely well set the story is moving n at a vey good pace. Johny Depp is one of the finest actor in the industry the way he portrays the character of an young outlaw is awesome.The way he moved the way he smoked really showed the efforts wat he put up to get into the character. Cruz although in a small performance convinces with her performance. But the thing wat i liked the most was the way the subject is handled Blow does not forces or imposes anybody to form an opinion its very emotional movie.George had his best time with all the money pouring in but he never got real friends in life .Everyone whom he loved betrayed him one way or the other even destiny.Characterization is truly great each n every character had his own way
ANother good thing about the movie was the way Ted Demme was able to capture the change of the generation and the environment over a span of time. overall a very impressive movie.
8/10
