New on DVD: Crisis examines opioid epidemic

New on DVD: Crisis examines opioid epidemic Tribune A thriller exploring the nation s opioid epidemic tops the new DVD releases for the week of April 20. Crisis : Three separate stories collide in director Nicholas Jarecki s examination of drug abuse in the United States. The movie stars Gary Oldman, Evangeline Lilly and Armie Hammer, who has been at the center of multiple sexual misconduct claims and is under investigation by the LAPD. The film misses the mark, said Los Angeles Times critic Michael Ordoña in his review. The movie is a multiple-narrative look at the misuse of the likes of fentanyl, oxycodone and heroin that, according to HHS, afflicted more than 1.6 million Americans in 2019. It s a raging epidemic exacting a dreadful human toll, but Crisis doesn t share it in a meaningful, emotional way; it feels like research dressed as a drama.

Crisis movie review a diffuse drama about the opioid epidemic Assignment X

February 26, 2021 CRISIS is a well-intentioned and-well shot – on 35mm, no less – thriller about the opioid epidemic. Director/writer Nicholas Jarecki has a lot on his mind here – so much, in fact, that he’s got three distinct plotlines running here. One of these never links up with the other two, which is among the film’s several problems. A serene, snowy landscape is interrupted by the hectic arrest of a young drug smuggler at the U.S./Canada border south of Montreal. Then we’re in Detroit, where grumpy high-level drug dealer Jake Kelly (Armie Hammer) turns out to be an even grumpier Federal agent. Jake is trying to bring down both a Fentanyl-selling Detroit-based gang and a Montreal-based supplier by setting up a deal between the two. This requires him going to Montreal and convincing criminal boss Mother (Guy Nadon) that he’s the real thing. In his personal life, Jake is coping with a drug-using younger sister (Lily-Rose Depp).
