VIDEO: Loving Pablo with Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz details Escobar’s love affair with TV reporter http://gangstersinc.ning.com/profil...avier-bardem-and-penelope-cruz-details-e

Looks like Bardem plays him well.

How can anyone not watch ANYTHING w/ the delicious Penelope Cruz?..and God bless Bardem,,,No Country for Old Men?? great flick100 %..

100% agreed H, Bardem is a brilliant actor. I never saw him act in any movie before NC4OM, nothing that I could remember anyway. One thing is for sure though, his portrayal of Anton Chigurh is something that I'll always remember. One of the best acting performances ever, his Oscar was well deserved. That was one decision the Academy got right for a change..

I didn't know those two were married btw, I wonder if that connection will resonate on the big screen..

LOVING PABLO

I was really looking forward to this as the trailer had my interest, as did the subject matter. Both Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz were very good in their roles as Pablo Escobar and Virginia Vallejo respectively. The film is about the longstanding affair the two had during Pablo's rise until his death in 1993. Virginia was a journalist in Columbia who since fled to America for fear of her life. She later wrote a book, which then became this film. Being that this is a love story, their isn't much violence in the film. I was a little disappointed with Bardem's performance as I was hoping he was going to bring more to the film. At times he seemed to mumble and it made it difficult to hear him. At other times, you can clearly tell he was wearing a prosthetic belly to show the weight gain of Pablo. I thought it had some promise and unfortunately, was somewhat of a let down. If you want to see a great show about Pablo watch NARCOS on Netflix. It's fantastic and Wagner Moura is outstanding as Pablo. 5.5/10
