“Savages” has a promising beginning and interesting enough characters but, in the end, it resorts to the same old formula as other movies of its kind.

I'm surprised at all the negative comments. I found the movie to be a high-octane testosterone thrill ride and I loved the ending. Good story line and acting.

Skip it. Del Toro was good, the rest of it was dreadful. It's unfortunate, because Stone is clearly a guy who knows what he's doing and has all the tools, he just hasn't put them to any good use in making this film.

The 1st 15 minutes were awful; then I quit.

I liked the MMF dynamic (although I could have used more relationship building) and I liked that the boss of the cartel was a woman. I usually love Aaron Johnson, but he seemed to flounder in this movie. It was okay, but entirely forgettable.

This movie was awful. I didn't expect it to be great but I didn't expect it to be so terrible either. It was extremely unrealistic. The over the top acting was driving me crazy. After about 30 minutes I was so bored. I couldn't wait till it went off. It didn't even have any action what kind of drug movie doesn't have action. Oh wait they give you a little snippet of some action. What a disappoint.

Theres a fine line between reality & fantasy, its hard to discern which is which, in this film?
