Apr 12, 2020Unfortunately the show isn't that compelling or even interesting, and the effort put into this may have been better suited for a different story.

Apr 8, 2020I enjoyed it. While it mainly focuses on one of the two techs, they both committed very different crimes with severe impacts. Once again, we see incompetence and ass covering by the people who are supposed to be the good guys; the prosecution. Time and time again, innocent people go to jail due to police and prosecutors looking to wrap up a case in a neat bow instead of seeking the truth.

“How to Fix a Drug Scandal” provokes dejected frustration and agitated awe in equal strides by showcasing the flawed humanity of those dedicated to upholding the law as well as those trapped beneath it. ... Its presentation, while enlightening, tastes stale and comes across as old-fashioned at points. For a film looking to combat the effigy of a perfect nation, “How to Fix a Drug Scandal” needed razor-sharp claws and a soul-shaking bark; but its final presentation is too sterile and toothless to impart an unforgettable impression.

As in a number of Netflix docuseries, the thesis of How to Fix a Drug Scandal isn’t clearly presented early on, which means you’re often left with the feeling of trying to absorb a lot of narrative, information, and evidence, but not sure how it’s supposed to relate to the rest of the story, or what point it’s driving toward. ... Yet Carr’s thoroughness is unassailable.

Veers dangerously close to becoming cheesy and artificial. But the results of Farak and Dookhan’s actions is so fascinating, that we’re very interested in watching this until the end.
