The Infiltrator

The true story of one man against the biggest drug cartel in history

Based on a true story, Federal agent Robert ’’Bob’’ Mazur goes deep undercover to infiltrate the notorious Pablo Escobar’s drug trafficking scene plaguing the nation in 1986 by posing as slick, money-laundering businessman. Teamed with impulsive and streetwise fellow agent and rookie agent posing as his fiancé, Mazur befriends Escobar’s top lieutenant. Navigating a vicious criminal network in which the slightest slip-up could cost him his life, Mazur risks it all building a case that leads to indictments of 85 drug lords and the corrupt bankers who cleaned their dirty money, along with the collapse of the Bank of Credit and Commerce International, one of the largest money-laundering banks in the world.

Cape Argus / The Star Theresa Smith Undercover thriller really cashes in on Cranston's talent.	10
Die Burger Herman Lategan Hou kop met al dié vendettas.	10
ScreenIt Jim Judy In short, it&rquot;s a solid effort (especially from Cranston, Kruger, and Bratt), but it&rquot;s missing the electricity and spark that a Scorsese or Paul Thomas Anderson would have injected into the material to make it a giddy, fully engaging viewing experience.	11
