'American Made (2017)' feels much longer than it is thanks mainly due to its inherently repetitive and tightly-packed source story. Though it almost lacks any tangible consequences until its very last moments, the journey is thankfully a generally fun and entertaining one which relishes in its ever-so-slight absurdity. It seems strange that the picture would play so light once you know where it ends up, though the memory of the real-life man may have been better served in this way than with some dour dramatic piece, and the seventies funk elements that often distort the feature are a little bizarre considering that most of it takes place in the eighties. Still, it's an enjoyable ride that manages to entertain if not enlighten. 6/10.
