Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

Following the success of Edge of Tomorrow, Tom Cruise has done it again! Tom Cruise and Doug Liman are a perfect duo, This is a must see film! I can't wait for you guys to see it and I think you're gonna love it!

When I suggested to my wife that we watch this film, she was skeptical. Tom Cruise in a "based on a true story" movie about the 1980s CIA and drug trade? Really? But here's the thing: Liman has such a great sense of how to use Cruise and how to tell a story like this. The plot starts quickly and keeps rolling. The tone/approach was just light and nostalgic enough to maintain balance between dark and entertaining. The protagonist seems both morally questionable and highly likable from moment one because - well - it is Cruise. There's a fair amount of fluff here, but it is hard not to enjoy the fluff. And even harder to resist Googling afterwards to confirm that this bizarre story had more truth than we might want to admit.

AMERICAN MADE is simply an outstanding, entertaining, fun action movie. It is something you don't expect biopics to be: funny. The film packs a solid punch with its top notch action sequences, cinematography and funny sequences apart from a tight screenplay, razor-sharp editing and a lot more that needs to be actually seen than read.Tom Cruise is very impressive in the portrayal of Barry Seal. He makes his presence felt throughout the film. The film is screenplay driven but still he carries it almost alone on his shoulders. Rest of the cast is also impressive. The film is shot very well; the technical aspects are top notch. The locales showcased are just a pure treat to watch. Background score is also immersive. Another major plus is the action. This film redefines the action genre by giving a lot of cool action blocks but without being violent. That's different given the theme of this film!While not very suspenseful or tension-filled, AMERICAN MADE is still a purely entertaining and memorable biographical action comedy which is a must see especially if looking for some realistic fun.

American Made bears some similarity to movies like Air America, Catch Me If You Can, and Goodfellas, and other fashionable caper movies. It is a perfect vehicle for Tom Cruise, on whose charisma, smile, and appealing cockiness the movie hinges because we don't get a lot of psychological insight into the character, or learn why he was so determined to make more money than he could spend. Cruise played pilot Bruce Seale to distancing effect. This was well advised because the real protagonist was involved in some egregious criminal activities and the supporting roles don't have much stake in the story. But, this is a movie, and audiences can suspend their judgement when they see government agencies controlling its citizens with ultimatums. All in all, this is a story about one man - a citizen - at the centre of one of the most controversial political scandal of the early 1980s. That is at least interesting.
