Drug Wars: The Camarena Story (1990)

Rate: 8
Viewed: 8/06

8/06: Drug Wars: The Camarena Story is an exceptional Michael Mann movie.

The acting, especially from Craig T. Nelson and Benicio del Toro, is delicious. I like the story which comes off as educational. A lot of films tend to document the rise and fall of drug lords or addicts, but this one isn't about that. It's rather how a federal agent, to the best of his abilities, tries to win the impossible war against drugs.

All in all, Drug Wars: The Camarena Story is a solid film.
