The Legend of Cocaine Island

I was glued to the screen the entire time. All of the people (except the wife) were very likable and entertaining. The movie was very lighthearted and fun.

I didn't once get bored and pick up my phone, which is pretty much the highest praise that I can give a movie these days.

In other words, overly dramatic for what it actually was. Too much fluff as well. If they had cut the wife out of the story it would be an 8 instead of a 7. Nobody wants to listen to a spoiled woman cry about suddenly having a smaller house.

If you can make it past the first 20 minutes it's worth finishing though.

Netflix is going to end up responsible for inspiring a generation of drug dealers or criminal enterprises - but damn, these documentaries are as oddly addictive as the drugs they feature.

"The Legend of Cocaine Island" is in a similar vein to "Operation Odessa", though not quite as crazy and less charismatic. The main guy here (Rodney) just comes across as a somewhat unlikable, fat, greedy guy who pretends to be remorseful for his greed-fuelled actions. The supporting cast of characters is far more interesting - Andy and Dee in particular.

The doco keeps a good pace and it's certainly a larger-than-life story that is hard to look away from. Who doesn't love a good treasure hunt story? This time, the "treasure" just happens to be $2 million worth of cocaine. "The Legend of Cocaine Island" is as much an ode to the art of storytelling as it is a crime documentary - each person here knows how to spin a story.

How much of it is actually true - who knows? But it's entertaining nonetheless! The ambiguous ending was an intriguing way to wrap things up - and certain to boost "tourism" numbers in Puerto Rico.

Her cry baby oh woe is me story almost killed this for me but I ended up liking it

Think Milton from office space acting like a big time drug dealer. Andy is a real life Matthew McConaughey but way more annoying. It's just some guys telling a pipe-dream type story, and it gets better as it goes.
