The Infiltrator

The true story of one man against the biggest drug cartel in history


The Infiltrator
Based on a true story, Federal agent Robert ’’Bob’’ Mazur goes deep undercover to infiltrate the notorious Pablo Escobar’s drug trafficking scene plaguing the nation in 1986 by posing as slick, money-laundering businessman. Teamed with impulsive and streetwise fellow agent and rookie agent posing as his fiancé, Mazur befriends Escobar’s top lieutenant. Navigating a vicious criminal network in which the slightest slip-up could cost him his life, Mazur risks it all building a case that leads to indictments of 85 drug lords and the corrupt bankers who cleaned their dirty money, along with the collapse of the Bank of Credit and Commerce International, one of the largest money-laundering banks in the world.

What the Critics say

Cape Argus / The Star
Theresa Smith quote iconUndercover thriller really cashes in on Cranston's talent.

Die Burger
Herman Lategan quote iconHou kop met al dié vendettas.

ScreenIt
Jim Judy quote iconIn short, it&rquot;s a solid effort (especially from Cranston, Kruger, and Bratt), but it&rquot;s missing the electricity and spark that a Scorsese or Paul Thomas Anderson would have injected into the material to make it a giddy, fully engaging viewing experience.

Tomatometer quote icon The Infiltrator&rquot;s compelling fact-based story and tremendously talented cast are often just enough to balance out its derivative narrative and occasionally clunky execution.
