Traffic

Som intelligent spänningsfilm, en film som håller pulsen hög men ändå behandlar åskådaren som en hyggligt intelligent och estetiskt vaken person, överträffar Traffic det mesta...

...Soderbergh's electrifying pace always keeps this huge project firmly on the rails, always moving, always running.

Soderbergh's story, from a screenplay by Stephen Gaghan, cuts between these characters so smoothly that even a fairly complex scenario remains clear and charged with tension.

A triumphant, intelligent drama, oozing dramatic poise and complexity.

...it is to illuminate how far-reaching the drug trade is, and how trafficking in narcotics can impact on the lives of many different people in a variety of circumstances.
