Snitch - 毒火線 - 限時翻供



Snitch (限時翻供/毒火線) is an 2013 film. The movie stars The Rock, Dwayne Johnson. The supporting cast include Barry Pepper, Susan Sarandon, Benjamin Bratt, Jon Bernthal, Melina Kanakaredes, and Nadine Velazquez. The film is inspired by a true story.



The Rock owns a shipping business and is doing well. He has a McMansion in the suburbs of Missouri. His son from his ex-wife accepts a drug shipment and is busted by the DEA. Sent to jail, The Rock tries to get him free. The Rock decides to snitch on a big player in the drug cartel to get his son released from jail sooner. The workers in his yard have criminal history and he get a connection in. From that point on, it's the cat and mouse chase of getting his son of jail without getting himself and his family killed.



The Rock is a presence and I like his movies. I still refer to him as The Rock. The women in the film were nice eye candy, but it was a thriller with bits of action thrown in. A layman going in to set up a drug deal is crazy in itself. To do it for boy in jail and to basically upturn families for the rest of your life. That just seems crazy.

Watch it. The Rock is in it.
