REVIEW
Understanding the complexity of the underworld is never an easy chore. But it is made more difficult when the film purposely tries to hide the connections between these individuals. We are shown snippets of various criminal activities scattered though out the world (in Havana, New Orleans, Dallas, Marseilles and even the jungles of Indonesia) and get to see who is involved.
Then we are left to figure out “who dunnit”. But I wasn’t up to it and left after an hour.
CLASSIFICATION
for sexual content, brief nudity, language and drug use.
