Review of Traffic

Traffic (I) (2016)
6/10
Emotional but with some Exaggerations
22 January 2020
Saw this on TV the other day and although I did like it for the most part, there were a few things I did find objectionable. First, the story is heart-warming, a dying girl getting a heart transplant and a group of people trying to help make that happen. But the message of the story is lost when it is shown that the girl's (absent) father is a movie star and abuses his power and his connections to get his daughter a heart. That didn't really sit so well with me.

Second, there were a lot more sub-plots in the movie which all competed for the viewer's attention, some of which seemed unnecessary. But, that apart, the cast was pretty good and they suited their roles. Jimmy Sheirgill and Manoj Bajpayee are great in their respective roles and elevate the movie to another level.
