January stack - "Narc"
I know, I know -- we're in February. The business end of February, too. As I warned in the first 'January stack' post, I strayed from the list by letting my whims take control. Too many impulse viewings.
Anyway. I got around to re-watching "Narc", director Joe Carnahan's 2002 calling-card feature that pushed all of Tom Cruise's buttons. He liked it so much he bought it, and the rest is history.
"Narc" is a fierce, moody, testosterone-laden cop drama. The direction is sharp, assured, and the performances are excellent across the board. I was of the opinion that Ray Liotta was the best thing about this film, and after re-watching the film, my opinion hasn't changed.
My score: 8/10
