Synopsis: In 1985 Dallas, electrician and hustler Ron Woodroof works around the system to help AIDS patients get the medication they need after he is himself diagnosed with the disease.
Review: The story of a macho that wants to survive and sees the opposition of his friends in front of his disease. His machism and his love to life brings him in an incredible logic to get friend with a gay roomate and to defend him. It is based on a true story and there is no mercy neither for the criminal American authorities and industry nor for the people affected by AIDS. What is enphasized is the struggle for life, even if it is hard. These ideas are enhanced by the position of the camera with regard to the people and by the dialogues. The acting of McConaughey is incredible, so many types of reaction, all convincing. The acting of Jared Letto, who is quite often put on roles of beautiful person who gets destroyed, is very fine.
Rating: 7 /10
