Blow

Blow Blow was a very entertaining and educational film. The fast pace and issue of trafficking of illegal drugs caught my attention. The camera angles were close up and the camera always seemed to be moving. The movie was consistently unfolding, the viewer would see Johnny Dep’s character (George) arrested and by the next scene he was out; the film cut through non relevant parts of his life. Blow catches the viewer’s interest from the start by showing a scene from later in his life in where he testing his cocaine purchase. From there it tells of his childhood and how he began his obsession of money, which would later consume his life. When George is young, his father’s business went bankrupt. George saw the problems that financial hardship caused his parents and became determined to make enough money so that poverty would never be an issue in his life. George obviously turned to dealing drugs, which made him happy for a while. Money was always the center of his life, which leads to the main topic of the film. As George’s father said to him at a young age, “Money isn’t real.” One film, money, george, life, father, movie, fast, blow, viewer, told, storyline, saw, said, relationships, issue, enough, daughter, because, young, very, scenes, scene, people, out, obsession, never, must, moved, made, loved, learn, later, important, great, good
