Narcopolis is a futuristic thriller set in the near future where all classes of drugs have been legalized. Frank Grieves is a 'Dreck', a roaming narc responsible for keeping the black market dealers off the streets and the licenced drugs companies rich. In the near future, Frank Grieves is a new breed of police officer working in a city where the manufacture and use of all recreational drugs is legal but controlled and exploited by licensed drug companies. When a new, lethal drug appears on the streets, Grieves is caught between those who want to destroy it and those who may be able to unlock its potential for good.
Narcopolis never rises above mediocre as far as story is concerned, building to a supposedly slam-bang stunner of a finish that's nowhere near as inspired as I think the director intends it to be.
There's simply too much going on to establish characters. More upsettingly - being that this is a sci-fi film - it's impossible to tell what the cool parts are supposed to be.
It's obvious a lot of care, time and creative passion went into it. It's a relatively low budget project that does a great job pretending it's not. But behind the aesthetics, there isn't much else.
