It's hard to feel bad for a drug dealer.

Rating: 7/10 (23 March 2001)

Johnny Depp does about the best job possible of making the audience feel emotionally connected to a drug dealer, but it was still difficult for me to feel bad for his character. That said, most of the acting was great and it was really an interesting story. Penelope Cruz has the latest arrival I've ever seen for someone receiving second billing, but she was excellent. Franka Potente let the accent slip a little too much, but it didn't detract from the movie. This isn't a movie I would highly recommend to people, but I wouldn't stop anyone from going to see it.
