White Boy Rick (2018): Movie Review
Jim Pagiamtzis Review
Spectacular true story about Rcik Wersche Jr and the journey he went on in the early 1980's. His father Rick Sr (Mathew McConaughy) was selling guns and his son got in to deep into drugs. The FBI recurited him to get intelligence and money some glory.
This went from bad to worse and the FBI got what they wanted but Rick Wershe went to jail anyways. At the age of 16 he went to jail and was released in 2017.
9 out 10 stars
