A slow and halfhearted war on drugs crime thriller, "The Infiltrator" can't keep up with the likes of the far superior "Traffic."

Having already experienced the excellent Narcos, it's good to see the American side of the cartels that is portrayed in The Infiltrator. Taken from the book written by the real-life Robert Mazur (who Bryan Cranston plays in the film), the film may take awhile to get rolling, but has plenty of tense moments and a kicker of a wedding. Plenty of great characters and great castings - this is a movie for true crime fans.

The Infiltrator gets off to a slow start but it's telling when you're excited for the finale of a crime drama despite knowing in advance that it won't be a shoot-out;sorry spoiler warning. Bryan Cranston leads a solid cast in this unevenly paced but interesting tru-crime story about unlikely hero Robert Mazur. Back in the 1980s, Mazur was an undercover agent who must destroy the Colombian drug cartel and a corrupt banking empire in one fell swoop. No pressure, right?
