Okay the colour saturation wasn’t THAT bad, but a bit on-the-nose nonetheless. Have nothing more to say other than that it holds the three-pronged storyline together very well. I think it’s really easy for a movie with multiple storylines to unintentionally make the audience favour one storyline over others. But this film does pretty well at interrelating them and making them compelling individually, while still keeping attention and suspense throughout. The performances were excellent and a highlight to the film, even when the dialogue got a bit preachy at times. The film gave the characters complexity and humanity to reflect the nuances of the war on drugs.
