Prescription Thugs

After losing a family member to prescription drug abuse, a documentarian investigates America’s dependence on medication. He speaks with addiction experts, survivors, and whistleblowers while examining the forces behind the expanding pharmaceutical market and confronting how the crisis has affected his own family.

My take

You’ll like this if you value personal, investigative documentaries about addiction and corporate influence, especially like Take Your Pills or Crack: Cocaine, Corruption & Conspiracy; Not for you if you prefer lighter or purely observational viewing.
