If only we had a more believable hero, and weren't feeling so disappointed at how little of the villain we get.

The Public (Buffalo)
Rating: 3/5 --
An entertaining and suitably gruesome gangster thriller which nevertheless feels like a missed opportunity. Benicio del Toro is suitably weighty and fascinating in the lead role.

When you have the fortune of landing an actor like Del Toro, it's almost criminal to spend so much time watching the scales fall from an innocent's eyes when we could be watching a master actor convey quiet, sleepy-eyed, mumbling menace.

Rating: 3/5 --
While this may be Hutcherson's movie and he does a decent job, he stands no chance against Del Toro, the charismatic powerhouse. The latter may always be typecast as a kingpin, but he never fails to make his characters riveting.

The New Paper (Singapore)
ESCOBAR: PARADISE LOST manages to deliver a surprise or two as it switches gears into a full-on thriller....Del Toro is compelling as an enigmatic patriarch who’s always intimidating...
Chicago Sun-Times
Rating: 2/4 --
[Del Toro is] really very good here, as he almost always is, no matter the quality of the film around him. The rest of the movie? Not so much.

Rating: 3/5 --
The movie contains a subtly crazed performance from Benicio del Toro as Escobar: one moment fooling around with his children in the hacienda swimming pool, fondling his gold taps, the next executing his enemies.

Product Description:
Andrea Di Stefano's crime drama ESCOBAR: PARADISE LOST stars Josh Hutcherson as Nick, an American who opens a surf shop in Colombia. Nick begins dating a young woman, who turns out to be the niece of the feared and powerful drug lord Pablo Escobar (Benicio Del Toro). When Nick gets involved in a feud with a rival store, Escobar puts a definitive end to the dispute, and soon the young man finds himself drawn into Escobar's world of crime, power, and hedonism. Eventually, he must decide what he is willing to do in order to keep this new lifestyle. ESCOBAR: PARADISE LOST screened at the 2014 Toronto International Film Festival.
