Traffic boaring? I don't think so. Slow moving, maybe. But interesting throughout.
Traffic had one of the most satisfying endings in motion picture history. Benicio del Toro's character agreed to coporate with the police on one condition: if they put lights up on a ball field, so that children could play at night instead of getting into trouble. He didn't want money. And the last shot is him sitting in the stands, as children played baseball at night, with the lights up. That part makes me reolize that there are really good people still out there. We're not just a world of A-holes trying to make money. del Toro was such a good guy in that movie.
Traffic: great movie. I don't care what anyone says. The American Film Institute named it best picture.
