Crisis

Well made, good pace and a decent watch. The casting is somewhat odd, not that the acting is bad it's just that different actor's would have fulfilled the characters better. Is there anything new? Well no, it has been done before but it is a good movie and passed the time nicely.

If you liked the movie crash or traffic you'll definitely like this movie. It's filmed very well with good acting and with a great cast. It's worth the 2 hour watch time I highly recommend it. Probably one of the better movies so far in 2021.

Got news for everyone, this is exactly what happens. Big Pharma buys studies via funding universities and the members in the FDA and CDC move from executive positions in Big Pharma, Ag companies in and out of the FDA and the FDA approves things based on money for Big Pharma, Ag. They lay it out in a movie and people defend them saying don't attack Big Pharma. These are corrupt companies that laughed about the people dying of opioids and all the other toxic crap they make. Good story. I enjoyed it.

Drug crime movie. The main idea of the film is the fight against drugs and it shows it with three different stories that are somewhat connected. A university professor and researcher working on a new opioid painkiller for a company with the prospect of being non-addictive discovers that in the long run it is ultimately more addictive than those on the market and is called upon to make important decisions about how to proceed. A secret agent tries to set a trap for big opioid dealers and takes it personally since his sister is addicted. A mother, a former opioid addict, finds out that her son is murdered and opioid traffickers are involved. Three very interesting stories revolve around the world of opioids that kill countless victims every year. Experienced actors with serious performances, in a very good and serious effort to demonstrate the ongoing fight against drugs, a film modest and without immorality. From the good movies to the genre that is definitely recommended.

Crisis is one of these films with multiple storylines and characters that at a certain point will all meet. The topic itself has a good intention; addiction to oxy and fen is not something to be taken lightly. So kudos for trying to show a big part of the problem and its branching repercussions. But the writing could have been so much better adding more depth into the characters' stories, delving into addiction and also could have given us a much more concise and gratifying ending. Some more realism would be good, especially on the conversations of Armie and the Armenians; that part was not convincing and looked very sloppy. There are many things that could have been better here, but if you want to see this film with a not-so-critical-eye, maybe you will be interested. It is not a boring film and will keep you invested for most of the time. 5,9/10
