BroadcastChic Excellent, a Must See
TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
Blake Rivera If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.
georgevlahakis A complete mess of a film. Poor acting from everyone involved. No direction. No vision. A waste of a very interesting story and person.
markbarner This movie had potential with all the buzz around the Pablo stories and movies. But the production, lines, make-up and mostly directing really is lacking in this movie. C.Zeta Jones is the only character that made me keep watching but most of the cinematography and the acting was just terrible. It's almost comedic the way some of the characters try to act. I blame the direction, production and the boring music score. Don't waste your time watching it but read the story in a book.
no name given I think if griselda was still alive and on top of her game she would either gives this movie a ten or kill everyone responsible for this making her look so stupid. Watch cc and cc2; much more interesting and actually factual. It's not about the money. Lots of good movies are made on the cheap. No, this is just bad writing, bad directing, and pretty much bad everything else. Too bad too because griselda, even though a violent charismatic psychopath, makes for a great story. Czj must be related to someone in the production or owe a favor. I'm sure she doesn't need the money so why would she make such a fool of herself. Or, maybe she took control of production and direction and just ran it off the rails. Well whoever is responsible for this schlock should buy up all the copies, burn them, hire a hacker to erase any trace on the web and then go into the witness protection program.
ops-52535 Well this was a slow low budget tv-production with one ''super star '' actor,trying to tell the story about griselda, which i would say was the most infamous drug queen-pin of all in american history. i would instead in this review recommend the high octan documentaries COCAINE COWBOYS 1 AND 2 ,that gives a very in depth look,from the insiders driving this era of drug history.here you will also find a thouroghly told story about griselda,and what mighty powers and horrors she spread around the united states.the acting in this film are at b/c-level,even zeta made a poor job on this set. it is a biographical film,but the presentation and pace are very slow. overall a dissapointment.
