Why watch this film?
Our suggestions
A drug trafficker arranges a multi-cartel Fentanyl smuggling operation. An architect recovering from an oxycodone addiction tracks down the truth behind her son's disappearance. A university professor battles unexpected revelations about his employer, a pharmaceutical company bringing a new "non-addictive" painkiller to market. Set against the backdrop of the opioid epidemic, their stories collide.
"Starring names like Gary Oldman, Armie Hammer, Evangeline Lilly, Greg Kinnear, Michelle Rodriguez and Luke Evans, 'Crisis' is one of those typical stories that mix different characters, in different moments of their lives and even in very distinct places, but see their worlds collide -- like the award-winning 'Crash' does, for example. Here, however, the situation that unites them is the underworld of drugs. Directed by Nicholas Jarecki (from the disappointing 'The Negotiation'), the feature film is simple and straight to the point, showing a bit of how the drug industry works in the US."
