Negative Positive
Title: Blow
Review: Johnny Depp posesses an eclecticism and versatility so effortless that it's almost scary. His riveting turn as Cocaine Traffiker George Jung is one of many reasons to see this movie. The story of how he rises to the top of the drug game starting in the late 60's is told in a very clear, direct and colorful manner with great support from Ray Liotta, Paul Reubens, Franka Potente and Penelope Cruz. While the ending still seems a bit too cloying for me, nearly every frame leading up to the climax is American Cinema at it's best. Of Special Note: the costume design covering 3 decades of fashion, including the outlandish 70's is note perfect and easily adds to the texture and realism of the film without seeming cartoonish or flagrant. Give "Blow" a look, it's vastly entertaining.
