The greatest glorification of the drug trafficing trade ever made!!!

"Blow" is basically a glorification of the drug trade. Principles are shown in a glamorous light throughout most of the movie. They get all the girls and are awash in money. Even after they are arrested and confined to prison their only real crime portrayed is the loss of family life and strained relations with parents. In prison George Jung is portrayed as a counter culture icon, a wronged, flawed hero. The negative effects of the drugs upon the society as a whole are never broached. The killings, the crime, the destroyed lives, the waste are not examined. It is truly a movie about our times. A valuable movie to watch to see what has happened to our moral compass. It is another Hollywood view of the state of the union. January 2, 2009

Blow

Good movie. Too bad it wasn't filmed where the location was said to be, however. December 28, 2008

unbelievable!

Another fantastic performance by Johnny Depp. This is definately a true drug story and its amazing to see the rise and plummet of an adorable man! You have got to watch this movie! December 21, 2008

Crime does not pay. No honor among thieves. A very good life lesson based on a true story

The story is interesting and engaging from the beginning till the end.
It's a very good life lesson based on a true story. It showed a "big" drug dealer can make tons of money. However it also shows crime does not pay and there is no honor among thieves. They set up each other. They stole from each other, etc.

It's absolutely worth viewing. November 15, 2008

Oh Black Betty...

This movie is simply awsome!!! If you are a fan of Entourage and you have seen the Medelin episodes, then you have something great to compare this too. Blow is to Medelin episodes as BLOW is to sleep...

Buy this movie and stay up ALL NIGHT watching it...You will want to snort Johnny Depp up your nose. November 10, 2008
