Traffic


STARS: - Michael Douglas, Benicio Del Toro, Dennis Quaid and Catherine Zeta Jones

Winner of critical acclaim Traffic is one of the best films released this year. It is also a series of 3 stories that are linked together and gets revealed throughout the course of the movie. Director Steven Soderbergh had a big year with both Traffic and Erin Brokovich being nominated for Academy Awards.

Michael Douglas is the newly appointed drug czar who unfortunately has a daughter with a drug problem. Catherine is the heavily pregnant wife of a drug baron who has just been arrested but is not prepared to give up her way of life. Benicio, in the role the won him an Academy Award, is awesome as a drug courier with a secret.

Highly recommended but heavy going none the less. One to watch when in the mood.

CONCLUSION

Can be disturbing and very hard to watch. Excellent work from all actors involved it is not surprising this film won such critical acclaim.
