Narc

This week on Forgotten Cinema, the Mikes go undercover with Ray Liotta and Jason Patric in Narc (2002), written and directed by Joe Carnahan. While the performances are intense and the energy raw, the central mystery feels a bit thin, and the early 2000s grit doesn't quite hit the same over 20 years later. Is this a case worth reopening, or should it stay in the cold case files?

Join Mike Field and Mike Butler as they break down what works, what doesn’t, and why Liotta might be the best part of this moody crime thriller.

So, grab your popcorn and soda, please notice the exits to the left and right of you and settle down for Forgotten Cinema.
