Snitch

Construction company owner John Matthews learns that his estranged son, Jason, has been arrested for drug trafficking. Facing an unjust prison sentence for a first time offender courtesy of mandatory minimum sentence laws, Jason has nothing to offer for leniency in good conscience. Desperately, John convinces the DEA and the opportunistic DA Joanne Keeghan to let him go undercover to help make arrests big enough to free his son in return. With the unwitting help of an ex-con employee, John enters the narcotics underworld where every move could be his last in an operation that will demand all his resources, wits and courage to survive.

Jon Bernthal is so convincing in this one! Love him.

Decent movie. Gritty but with a low budget feel. A little action. A little drama. A bit of pathos. Solid actors - and based on a true story.

Jon Berenthal deserves all the plaudits he gets. He delivers every time.

DJ does well albeit a little one-dimensional emotionally at times.

Solid, watchable fare. I'd take 5 of these over a Netflix Movie of the Week.


6.5/10

Dwayne "the rock" Johnson hands down did an amazing job portraying the father who would go to any length to save his son! I wasn't expecting this movie to be this good but it had me.

No clue why this drove under the radar because as a crime drama it was fairly rock solid (the generic poster didn't help though)

Surprisingly, a lot of good actors are in this movie. The Rock plays a normal guy who can be beaten by a bunch of thugs on the street, which is a rare role for him - nowadays he basically plays the same character over and over. His character is also great, he's a father who's willing to sacrifice a lot to help his son after a seriously dumb mistake made by him. Jon Bernthal is great as always.
The weak point of the movie is that it's too long and kinda boring, a lot of expositions and stuff like that, half of the movie is gray or dark.
Still worth watching one time at least.

I like seeing The Rock in a non traditional role for him. Not a great film but it was enjoyable.
