Director Steven Soderbergh and screenwriter Stephen Gaghan successfully juggle three different storylines in Traffic, all of which revolve around the drug trade. Benicio del Toro gives one of his best performances as Javier Rodríguez, a Mexican police officer who initially believes his efforts are making a difference. Javier has to learn the hard way that there’s corruption on both sides of the law.
Similarly, Judge Robert Wakefield (Michael Douglas) has the drug war arrive on his doorstep when he learns his daughter, Caroline (Erika Christensen), is an addict. In Mexico, Helena Ayala (Catherine Zeta-Jones) discovers that her husband, Carlos Ayala (Steven Bauer), is secretly a drug lord. And if Helena wants to protect her family, she has some difficult choices to make.
Traffic is streaming on Prime Video.
