Things We Lost in the Fire

A Movie Reel

Things We Lost in the Fire: 7 out of 10.

Although it started to lag a bit in the last chapter, Things We Lost in the Fire is a pretty good movie.  Do you know why it's a pretty good movie?  Three words: Benicio Del Toro.

Benicio Del Toro is awesome.  Halle Berry is pretty fine herself, but Benicio Del Toro carries this sucker.  It's hard to believe we're already a decade removed from his performance in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. Was Traffic really eight years ago?

It's a shame he doesn't work more. My math suggests we're getting short changed.
