    Suffering in a Beautiful Country
  

*by J***L on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 16, 2004*

I lived in Panama from 1985 to 1988, and remember quite well some of the events portrayed in the movie. Of course a movie of 2 hours can not be expected to tell the entire history of Panama and the actions of General Noriega. Since I speak Spanish and knew many local people, I was able to understand current events. I thought the murder of Dr Hugo Spadafor was a terrible thing, as well as the suffering of the Panamanian people. From the time of my arrival to Howard AFB, we were instructed to respect and obey the laws of Panama as well as the PDF and local police. We were not allowed to carry guns nor wear a military uniform off base. As military personnel, we were taught that we had no right to intefere in the local politics. I thought that the United States building the Canal and our presence was a good thing, since we supported the economy and made many local friends. Therefore, it is my opinion that the movie was a reasonable brief synopsis of the life of Gen Noriega, although it left out many details of the suffering of the Panamanian people, and could have been much improved had it revealed more of the facts.

    Lights, camera, more action, please!
  

*by R***Y on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 21, 2001*

This is a too-long and too-talkative account of the streetwise thug who brutalized his countrymen as the military ruler of Panama in the 1980s.  Bob Hoskins is believable as Manual Noriega but he can't overcome all of the dialogue and a leisurely story shot mainly indoors.  You keep wishing for action tied to real or believable Panamanian locations to create a sense of locale. The co-villain, the U.S., isn't really nailed for its thuggery in sending in some 25,000 troops to capture the head of a country who had been a longtime informant for the CIA.  As a result of Operation Just Cause, a classic wrong name if there ever was one, an estimated 2,500 to 5,000 Panmanians were killed and an entire poor neighborhood was obliterated; it has not yet been rebuilt completely.  The movie does claim at the end that drug trade in Panama has doubled since Noriega was removed; the elder Bush, president at the time, had been miffed that Noriega also was helping the Colombian drug cartel. Hoskins makes a nice try but the movie misses the mark.

    You can't just do whatever you want to do when making movies.
  

*by T***J on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 13, 2020*

For people who gave this movie 1 star, let me give you a little knowledge. Consider this?NUMBER 1: First when these movie directors and producers make these movies they want to put as much truth and useful information as possible. However, they only have full access to public information but when it comes to getting more information between governments (Panama & the USA), they are limited to certain resources and they are instructed as to how much they can reveal. For example: When Spike Lee made the movie Malcolm X; he wanted to put other things in the movie especially how he impacted certain  burrows in NY.  However, the state of NY, police department and other agencies told him what he could & couldn't do. He tried to put the truth in which was never mentioned in any biography that has ever been written about Malcolm X. Another thing ( It's a reason why they call music & movies; ENTERTAINMENT). The writers, directors, and publicists can't do as they please. They have to get information from certain resources and sometimes the most important information that is needed is what is limited.
