0:18.8

It was pretty good. I guess a obviously fictional

0:23.6

out of it. It was interesting to see I guess a

0:30.6

obviously fictionalized take on, I guess, I don't know how much to how much to say in the non-spolar section, but fictionalized take on some historical events involving drugs and the government.

0:44.4

That much I think is in the trailers.

0:46.1

0:47.1

0:48.7

I thought it was a mostly fun movie that maybe didn't quite hit the mark on the style it was going for.

0:55.0

Really? Like almost had this really cool like stylized sort of take on stuff

1:01.3

but it never quite hit the high that it needed to. of Have you did you did you see any of the episodes of narcos did you watch any like did you want to see one yeah did you okay

2:17.7

I don't have much hope for this movie's box office because holy shit there was five people in that theater.

2:23.6
