A very exiting yet quite disturbing. It is so very true what the writers were trying to get the point across. It shows and makes you actually opens wide your eyes that is to this story.
I loved Catherine Zeta-Jones in that movie! She was just amazing! I loved that movie. Beautiful script!

Hollywood sub-culture trash. Washed out colors, lifeless plot, and above all, boring. This is the kind of movie the Academy raves about just because it is different. Well, different doesn't necessarily mean brilliant, and certainly not in this case.

I found the camera work distracting, and the lack of plot disappointing. After all the hype, I thought it would be better.

I really thought this movie was quite exciting. Interesting subject matter. Makes us think more about cloning or not.

Wow! I really loved this movie, even though it was kind of hard to follow in some ways. A really nice (?) way to show the drug-problem between Mexico and USA. Helene, 17.

Director Steven Soderbergh gives us a different look in presenting this movie as he is the camera man as well as director. The cast and story is excellent. A movie well worth having in your collection.

I thought this movie was well done, and that the main part of the story was the anguish over the daughter using drugs and her father feeling so helpless. A very timely story which I thought was presented very expertly.

It's a very good movie, many people say that its boring, but it's a kinda movie that you better see on tape at home, you gatta hav a special mood for this kinda movie, it's not very entairtanin, but still, I think the idea is very good, very realistic, I think young people should see this movie.

Ya, this was bad, a total waste of 6 bucks. My girlfriend fell asleep on my shoulder, halfway thru. The only thing I got out of this movie, was a sore left shouder.

I rented this film because I had heard good things about it, but I was very disapointed, this film is so boring, so hard to follow and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone, how people have actually liked this film is beyond me, it is truly appauling!!
| 1/10 | c.fisher9@ - first review 24.7.2001 - age: 18-25 |
Realistic movie seem real but the stories are hard to follow in a sense that it goes really nowhere... Benicio Del Toro is impressive but the rest where are they?

I'm a dutch student in architecture planning to design, an eshteblishment for the prescripted providence of narcotics to drug addicts, for my finals. I found the scene with Micheal Douglas changing his speech very inspiring.

It was an intriguing plot. Some scenes were disturbing. It was too long. I found myself saying 3/4 of the way through... when is this going to be over. How it reached academy standards I don't know. Not recommended if you want to be entertained.

This was the best movie I have seen in a long time. Everything from the script to the editing was fantastic. Some say that they didn't like how 'choppy' it was, but that just adds to the effect of the movie.

Absolutely a wonderful and thought-provoking piece of work. The dark and complex world of drugs is affictively depicted with gritty reality. There are no good-guy/bad-guy Hollywood characters. Amazing, honest performances. Not for everyone, due in part to its documentary-feel camera work. I just watched it on video-tape and it was the best rental I have seen in a year.
| 8/10 | brdavidson@ - 3 reviews 3.6.2001 - age: 26-35 |
Brilliant directing, all I have to say!... Well, we could also add this movie provides a picture of the drug-business under every aspect possible. From the small smuggler, to the top-class rich family, to the police forces involved with corruption... everything's in it! And it works!! Benicio Del Toro is EXCELLENT!!

I know that the movie is not for everybody... But for me, This movie, is the best movie I ever seen. Better than the godfather and goodfellas. !

THIS IS WHAT WE CALL A MOVIE. Forget about everything, just sit in your couch with nothing else to do than whatch what's going on on your screen. Don't watch it in a hurry, and don't watch it if you wish to see a superficial movie. Trafic is an original creation in the whole thing. From the technic that are using the cameramans to the way they treated a subject that might be boring in a movie these days. Drugs are everywhere, for everyone who wants it, but guys, don't forget there's always something wrong somewhere... And Trafic show us more truly than other stupid productions of Hollywood what's really going on up there. A movie for OPEN MIND people only... well I guess so

An extremely important film with a message. This should be mandatory viewing for children in high schools. If this does not scare the... out of you, nothing will! This should have won the oscar for best film... Clearly in years to come this will be the picture most people remember!

Traffic "C'est formidable! " It's the reality among our society. How drugs can affect the whole planet and reduce life. You must see it and get the tape or DVD when it comes out. Best movie by M. Douglas

A Must See! It is a film both socially conscious and beautifully shot. Steven Gaghan undertakes the entire process of the drug war in America and serves it up as a wake up call to all Americans. The best movie I've seen this year.
| 10/10 | jkkc97@ - first review 13.5.2001 - age: 18-25 |
An honest and real "in your face" look at the world of drugs around us. Well deserving of its Oscar praise!

This was one of the best films that I've seen in a long time. It is a film that all parents of teens should watch. It opened my eyes wide regarding the importance of being there for our children... of participating in their life.

Well I thought this movie was ok... needed more action though. That's for what I saw before and after I fell asleep!

Cinematography is very unique using colours, closeups, and hand-held effects for different scenes/moods. The movie itself doesn't spoon feed you; it is put together in a very different manner. A definite must see.

One of the best movies I have seen. Great plot, excellent acting, and very real. People who said there was no plot must have missed the bigger picture...

You know what... I really enjoyed this movie. The only thing that it really lacked was a strong plot. But the acting, directing, and story were great. The mexican thats the good guy is pretty cool... And Sheen does a wicked job trying to prevent his daughter from becoming a crackwhore! Go see it!!!

B-Grade movie all the way! Moreover, this "made-for-TV" movie would best describe the poor quality, story-line and acting. I walked out (disappointed) 20 minutes prior to the ending. Michael Douglas was very non-descript in his character. Wait for the video if you must see it at all.

Not too impressed. A documentary type movie is not what I expected. I thought this would be more action packed with more of a plot. The only thing I can take from this, is the realization of how much rich kids are involved in the drug game and their parents remain clueless about it. We got a lot of Jennifer Lopez, but not enough Salma H.

I just saw Traffic and think that it was a great movie. Really, it's a collection a great little scenes. From Benicio Del Toro's bar scene (hilarious), to a lunch scene w/ Catherine Zeta Jones and her girlfriends. A terrific cast. The story was a little difficult to follow.
| 8/10 | e_pierni@ - 7 reviews 2.4.2001 - age: 18-25 |
Very good movie. The soundtrack is awesome, and the camerawork seems sloppy at first, but together they give the movie a tention that really works. A definite MUST SEE. And the story holds up very well, unlike most movies these days.

I found it to be an interresting collage of Mexican geography, details about drug trade and its implications; a crude reality and a never changing display of greed. Nicely filmed as a dream-nightmare setting of filtered effects.

What is the big deal about this movie... It is so bad... All the hipe about Micheal Dougles and his wife when it's that Portorican guy that "makes" the movie. The Mexican scenes are so noseating that my Mom had to get out to vomit (no kidding). Micheal Douglas's role is so unimportant that they could have cut it out. It is a BAD movie.

This was an absolutely amazing movie. Anyone who said it was boring HEY THIS IS THE REAL WORLD! Cinematography was great, Benicio Del Toro - fantastic. Tells the truth and it scares you.
