Welcome to the Film Pie! Brisbane based film critic Matt Toomey has reviewed thousands of movies since 1996. See what's out now, or browse the review archive.

Crisis (out Mat 18) is reminiscent of Steven Soderbergh's Traffic in the sense it's a bunch of connected stories about the war on drugs in the United States. The film is trying to make pertinent arguments (e.g. big pharma has a lot to answer for) but many scenes come across like an unrealistic soap opera. Grade: B-.
