it's really poorly paced and uneven. i don't know what story they were trying to tell. matthew mcconaughey's performance was strong. the film as a whole was very meh. it wasn't fun like the trailer suggested it would be. it was more a criticism of the justice system because they put him in prison, but he was a drug dealer, so he should be going to prison. it was trying really hard to make the characters more sympathetic than they deserved to be, they were criminals, so it's hard for me to feel sorry for them when it bites them in the ass. read more

This movie about the rise of a teenager who became FBI informant and later spent time in jail for drug trafficking is pretty good. The look of the film in general with the time period of the early 80's is well done. Matthew McConaughey plays the teenagers father but central to the movie is Richie Merrett in his first screen role, his performance might land him an Oscar. If you want a good, well acted movie about a true life character then this is worth a look. read more
