This film rocked my world. I think its subtitle should be "paradise lost". The time he was having, the money he lost, wow irony. Going from the peaks of drug selling success to madness in jail, who has fallen further? Maybe... Full review

What can I say? Depp blew me away, and the story brought a tear in my eye, my lungs struggling for breathe, and my hands aplauding. Johnny Depp has never let me down and I don't think he ever will. A... Full review

I think more than any other movie so far that this film really portrays the consequences of a life dealing drugs. Not only things like the jail time and the tense costumers but the way that it affects relationships with family... Full review

Accordingly, it's hard to find any sympathy for the movie, either.....Not really, which is the movie's basic problem.....Which ultimately undermines the movie's entertainment value and essentially turns it into little more than a historical curiosity.....certainly Depp does his best to flesh out the character;.... ...

Not an unwatchable film, exactly, but a very disappointing one. The supporting cast are excellent too, particularly Reubens and Supplee, and it's always nice to see Demme regular Max 'Weasel Face' Perlich in a film. ... Full Review
