Pusher

This U.K. remake of the Danish original was going really good.  I was into it until halfway through.  Our main character became more stupid.  I hated the ending.  This came out at Fantastic Fest two years ago.  I never seen the original but I heard it's the same thing but more serious and it's part of a trilogy.  The actor that plays the big gangster in this one also plays the same role in the original.  I thought that was cool.  This reminded me of a badass film I saw at Fantastic Fest that same year called Black Out.  
Obviously, I'm not recommending this one.  Go shoot heroin and see Trainspotting instead.  Good fucking kick!
