Description

Jason Patric and Ray Liotta star in this sizzling action-drama that Elvis Mitchell of The New York Times says "...has the velocity of a hot slug from the barrel of a gun." Patric stars as Nick Tellis, a suspended narcotics officer recruited to investigate the murder of Michael Calvess, a rookie cop killed under mysterious circumstances. Tellis is teamed with Calvess's partner, Henry Oak (Liotta), a hot-tempered renegade who'll stop at nothing to avenge his friend's death. As Tellis and Oak follow a shadowy trail through the seamy drug underworld, the lines start to blur - between right and wrong, good and evil, and justice and revenge. Costarring music superstar Busta Rhymes.

    Deep, gripping, often hard to watch drama that leaves questions un answered right until the very last scene. Great film. Ray Liota at his very very best.

    In the movie drawer which reads 'grimy, gritty, violent but compelling' you'll find Narc, but you may have to search a bit as for whatever reason its one of those fine movies that seems to have passed a lot of people by. A movie which I watched many moons ago when it first came out and was reeled in by the solid performances from Liotta & Patric. Some fine action moments and a poignant backstory, about the fractured lives of some New York City cops, make this film great, though certainly not upbeat. Not unlike Training Day in concept but a wholly different experience nonetheless.

    This film is so underrated. The acting is superb and tense. The end of the film is amassive climax with a great twist. I can't believe that hardly anyone has seen it as it is brilliant. If you like thrillers/cop dramas which are gritty, fast paced and well acted go for this one. It will surprise you in a good way. 5/5. Pugman178 out.
