![]() After seeing George's tragic outcomes as a world-class coke dealer, I doubt anyone would want to get in or get back into the "business," but that doesn't necessarily mean the message is preachy. "Blow" is a touching drama that doesn't try to exploit the world of drugs, nor condemn it. I loved hearing all the great classic rock songs in the soundtrack, and every time I watch the film the songs get stuck in my head and I start singing them for days on end. It's too bad he's caught up in all this controversy, because he seems to have sufficient range as an actor. Paul Reubens gives a surprisingly earnest performance as a flamboyant, bisexual hairdresser. I'm not a fan of Penelope Cruz, and they could've chosen a much better actress, but she's only in the film about 20 or 30 minutes, so she isn't given enough time to ruin the film. I was so enlightened that I'm anxious to do some research on the real George Jung. The film is a little over 2 hours long, but the time flew by in a breeze. The movie has many tragic moments and many funny moments. Then again, I don't ever recall Johnny Depp doing a movie where he didn't put his full enthusiasm into the role. I'm sure he did lots of research on George Jung and tried to mimick his every mannerism, because this was far from a half-baked effort. While you are building it up the main roadblocks are getting enough souls and certain fights such as qualeg are best fought with a summon. Johnny Depp gives a tour-de-force performance, fully engaging himself in the character. Comming back six years later to answer this but yes giant dad works decently well in PvE. ![]() I personally was very engaged in the plot. Sure, it isn't a "great" movie, but when was the last time you saw 5 great movies in a row? A great movie comes along once in a blue moon, depending on your definition of great. I don't understand why many people I talked to either thought the film was bad or mediocre. ![]()
