Well made, but nothing new
This is a well-made documentary that starts off about the crack epidemic but grows into a critique of America's War on Drugs in general. It covers all the milestones, such as the the Iran-Contra affair, news coverage about crack, etc. The escalation of the legislation against drug addiction is an important point that was raised.
Overall the documentary was interesting, but it's a competitor in a crowded marketplace (documentaries about drugs are a dime a dozen). Good as an intro for those that don't know much about the topic.
