In this true story, Veronica Guerin is an investigative reporter for an Irish newspaper. As the drug trade begins to bleed into the mainstream, Guerin decides to take on and expose those responsible. Beginning at the bottom with addicts, Guerin then gets in touch with John Traynor, a paranoid informant. Not without some prodding, Traynor leads her to John Gilligan, the ruthless head of the operation, who does not take kindly to Guerin's nosing.

True stories made right can be a very powerful experience and Veronica Guerin turned out to be quite the decent little crime drama, and that is despite a script can be a little iffy in places. What carries this film is an enormous performance by Cate Blanchett. The rest of the cast is also well above average, and that makes this quite the pleasant watch. I knew the story about Veronica Guerin from one of my deep dives into the history of organized crime and gangs, and that made some of the narrative choices that Schumacher did a bit weird to me, but as I said above... Cate Blanchetts performance really makes this film. Recommended!!!
