LJ'S QUICK MOVIE REVIEW
"I think we've been doing this backward. We've been following the drugs
to get to the bad guys. What if we chased the money?"
"The Infiltrator", starring Bryan Cranston, follows the fascinating
tale of Robert Mazur, a U.S. Customs Agent who goes undercover in a
drug cartel.
The stakes are extremely high. If Mazur's disguise isn't convincing, he
will be brutally tortured and murdered. He, along with his two
partners, have to deal with intelligent drug-lords, ruthless thugs, and
shrewd businessmen. Watch as the trio concoct risky plans and false
identities while avoiding the suspicion of their targets.
The severe tension is truly felt through the amazing performances.
Cranston steals the show, while Diane Kruger, Benjamin Bratt, and Emir
Areu are all top-notch. There are nerve-wracking moments where viewers
sincerely fear for the characters' safety.
Overall, "The Infiltrator" is a riveting and complex movie with great
direction and superb acting. If crime-dramas are your cup of tea, I
highly recommend watching it.
