Customer Ratings & Reviews

The movie is a decent movie,a little strange.but worth watching.

It wasn't what I was expecting but still a good movie

Fast paced but badly casted, although a few pulled it up.

I missed this at the movies so I was excited to see it at a super low price at Best Buy. Several big names playing in the movie. Good action throughout the movie

Not exactly my favorites. Got it on a recommendation from a friend.

I just didn't care for it. I had to make three tries to get it watched.

This movie is a bit too violent, but the characters are good.

Strange storyline for movie but ok action and scenery.

I couldn't get into this movie at all. I thought it was something totally different. Lost interest in it after about 45 mins. Just wasn't for me

Have always wanted to own one of this product. It's the best choice I've ever made. So happy of this product and I love it.

Expected a much better film with the actors cast. Waste of time. Watch anything else.

story line poor and a big disappointment. i would not recommend.

Purchased this movie got home it won't work at all!

The movie moves along at a brisk pace and has some good action set pieces that make it highly watchable. There are some flaws however, the story can be odd at times with strange character motivations and sometimes random scenes pop up. There is a good amount of momentum to the movie and it can be intense at points which make it a good movie to watch. Oliver Stone has returned to some of his old form but it is definitely not his greatest work. Still, the movie is highly watchable and can be enjoyed.

Ok movie with good cast and a far out plot. not solid story

Can two men share a woman and stay friends? Can a small, independent group of marijuana dealers take on a Mexican cartel? Has Oliver Stone lost his touch? We are given a brief history of two of the lead characters, Ben and Chon (played by Aaron Johnson and Taylor Kitsch) by their girlfriend and the film’s narrator O (short for Ophelia, played by Blake Lively). Ben (Johnson) is a college graduate who majored in business and botany. Chon (Kitsch) is a veteran who returned from Afghanistan with the seeds that became an extremely potent form of marijuana and the foundation of their successful business. Ben contributes a great deal of his income to worthy causes and travels extensively. While he’s away, O and Chon receive a video containing numerous severed heads and chainsaw. They fear Ben has been killed until he returns home a short time later. They had a scheduled meeting with the cartel and so, they go ahead with it. The cartel representatives propose that Ben and Chon join their organization, but rather than consider their offer, they say they take the time they’ve been given to consider it and make plans to flee the country. A DEA agent named Dennis (played by John Travolta) tells them that the partnership is the best option. They disagree but, before they can leave the country, O is kidnapped. Ben and Chon hear this directly from Elena Sanchez, the leader of the cartel who ordered it. Elena (played by Salma Hayek) tells the two men that she intends to hold O hostage until they honor the terms of their agreement. During that time, she’s held prisoner amid miserable surroundings and guarded by a cartel henchman who goes by Lado (played by Benicio del Toro). Now, regardless of what anyone might say about its historical accuracy, or lack thereof, I greatly enjoyed JFK. Same goes for Wall Street, Nixon, The Doors and Born on the Fourth of July. I thought Any Given Sunday was alright, but nowhere near as good as the others I’ve mentioned. I don’t know if this movie’s failure is something to be blamed on Stone, the actors or the source material, but the story didn’t really go anywhere and the characters were completely unrealistic. I’m not saying I won’t watch it again, but I certainly won’t pay for the opportunity.

I wasn't sure about this movie but how could I go wrong with John Travolta? Worth a purchase and still is less than the cost of going to the movies.

wow,what a ride,didnt know where the movie is going to take you.hoping for the best for the guys.all the actors was very good.this movie has everything you need for action,if you want to go for a ride,get this movie

The story is okay the acting and how the film was delivered not so much. My husband liked the film I didn't . The movie was not so entertaining. I think the actors that aren't that well known did a better job then those that are. I wouldn't buy it again its more of a one time film .

I saw this movie twice, and loved it both times. If you're a fan of the classic Oliver Stone films and characters you'll love this film.
