Ratings and reviews

If you haven't seen Traffic in a while, I promise it's better than you remember. Poignant story with trailblazing cinematic style. This film aged like a fine wine.

The real deal: see Michael Douglas ' daughter's drug dealer (white upper class male) tell Michael Douglas why upper income whites would be selling drugs on the street similar to minorities and under the same circumstances. This is the point most whites do not want to address -drugs are an economic issue.

Benicio DelToro steals the show with a solid performance. The General was also Played to perfection.There are some slow parts but overall it connects.
