Escobar: Paradise Lost (2014) Spanish
A movie closely based on life of Escobar Pablo alias Don Pablo who was a famous Colombian Drug dealer and a kingpin during 90's. This movie will be front a Pablos Niece boyfriend perspective and how his life changes drastically when he becomes part of Pablos family. The lead cast Pablo was done by our Che Benicio Del Toro who did a rock solid performance in this film. Not sure how easily he just fits into such powerful characters and here as Don he was just terrific to watch. Especially on second half when he shows his true nature and that little Jungle book story , it was just stunning. Though it is about a drug dealer and how is empire managed to survive those days yet it did had drama and love too. Sad is that with the climax but yet it proves how dreadful Pablo was once . After Things We Lost in the Fire and Che , i liked this film very much and it just kept us engaged till the last minute. Will be a treasure for Benicio fans. Enjoy watching.
