Just Boring

Rating: 6/10 (22 February 2003)

True crime stories have been a subject of a few good movies, and much more failures. 'Blow' belongs to the second category. Nothing interesting happens in this movie, the story is conventional and previsible, the characters never develop beyond cheap melodrama. Nothing of the devastation of drug culture shows up on the screen. Gangsters love their daughters? So what? Just boring. I never liked Jonny Depp, but what a waste of Penelope Cruz talent to appear in such a movie! 6/10 on my personal scale.
