Review of Traffik

Traffik (2018)
6/10
An important subject yet constructed with carelessness
10 July 2018
I have read most of the reviews on here which led me to fall in the middle. I agree not worth the 7.4 it has but the subject manner and story is important to tell. There is more human trafficking in the US than most would believe. Women are over sexualized and that has become the norm, part of our culture, and too easily accepted. The biggest problem I had with this film was just that. The tight clothing, unnecessary sex scenes, the male friend of the lead character (Omar Epps) is a womanizing pig. Also, whomever was the makeup artist n this needs be reprimanded for the overuse of blush on Paula Patton's character, Brea. I found it distracting and kept wondering what was wrong with her face. In a story of this nature the over the top sexualized details are in bad taste. They should of stuck to the basics and the true nature of this despicable industry. In the end it all fell a bit short.
