The film does not flow into simple gun battles, car battles, rushing, good and evil, condemnation, vanity, and perversion. It is more like a life diary written by a sad man: there is sin and childhood, indulgence and first love, conspiracy and betrayal. There are arrogance and regret, invulnerable paranoia, and soft sorrow.
The overall film structure of "American Narcotics" is relatively loose. The proposition of the film is that the love of relatives is better than all money, but the film does not have much space in this area. As for the artistry, although every detail of the film is very real and attentive, it lacks the consistent artistic sublimation of the underworld theme. The film is quite valuable to be appreciated as a documentary film, but it always makes the audience feel that there is a "soul" missing and a little empty. In addition, the performance of the film actors are very competent, especially the starring Johnny Depp.
