It’s 1978. Hotshot TWA pilot Barry seal rakes in extra cash on the side smuggling Cuban cigars from Canada to the States.
Really superb drug and thankfully a gonzo, ironic barrel roll thorugh the war on drugs.
Cruise is as compelling as ever with charm to spare, and this is a ceaselessly entertaining. sometimes tense romp. although it doesn’t dig much below the surface.
If you’re already cynical about alleged government deception and corruption, merican made won’t help matters much.
"the tangle of that scandal into a larkish TomCruise adventure . Truth was not an impediment"
