Crisis 2021

Inspired by true events, Crisis is dramatic thriller about the opioid epidemic. The plot follows three characters, a university professor, an undercover FIB agent, and a single mother, whose lives are affected by the pharmaceutical black market. Starring Gary Oldman, Armie Hammer, and Evangeline Lilly, the film has a solid cast that delivers strong performances. However, the pacing is kind of slow and takes a while to gain momentum. Still, there are some suspenseful moments and a fair amount of intrigue. Crisis is a little muddled, trying for a greater scope than it can do justice to, but ends up being a fairly compelling film about an important social issue.
