The story of teenager Richard Wershe Jr.| who became an undercover informant for the FBI during the 1980s and was ultimately arrested for drug-trafficking and
sentenced to life in prison.
Solid work from the cast - particularly a scene-stealing Matthew McConaughey - helps White Boy Rick make up for a number of missed opportunities in the script.
