Village Voice by Abby Garnett

There's simply too much going on to establish characters.

Despite the surface sheen, and some enterprising plot twists, it doesn’t entirely convince.

The Hollywood Reporter by Frank Scheck

Boasting the canny use of suitably atmospheric, futuristic-looking locations, Narcopolis is far more impressive visually than narratively, with its tangled film noir plot making Raymond Chandler seem straightforward by comparison.

Its aspirations to high-end production values and the inventive use of urban cityscapes filmed from carefully selected futuristic angles are all very well, but it could have done with something a little looser, more punk, more grimy, more stoned.

Narcopolis starts off intriguingly and ends solidly. It's everything else in between that isn't particularly compelling.
