    Looks very decent. Always seemed like their was a good opportunity to make something based on the pilots during the Escobar period.

    Is this based on true events?

    From what I remember it's "loosely based" on a particular person, Barry Seal. The cartels had quite a few pilots, including several Americans. Imagine the film will draw from their antics.

    Regularly gets a mention on the Netflix thread, but Cocaine Cowboys is worth a watch, Barry Seal is featured in it at times.

    Perfectly fine, I suppose. Cruise is good. Narration not overused, I felt. Insane amount of money floating around. Film possibly a little too clean. Would have liked to see more the district attorney. Charlie Wilson's War this ain't, imo.

    Saw this last night, very enjoyable, scary the kind of people he was mixing it up with and seemed unaware of just how deep he was.
    Cruise played the buffoon well though, not his typical role at all, certainly does much to make up for that awful Mummy effort a few months ago.
