The Hulu drama revolving around the opioid epidemic succeeds at its story over the Netflix version.
The Big Picture Dopesick takes us all the way back to 1996, with a shot of a hardscrabble West Virginia coal mining town set to the equally tumultuous sounds of Johnny Cash, setting a certain tone from the very opening of the Hulu series. There is nothing glitzy or glamorous about the topic that it addresses, but the new Netflix limited series Painkiller forgets that.
'Dopesick' Takes the Time To Develop All of Its Characters Dopesick surrounds the epidemic from four separate and well-written points of view, illustrating the effect Oxycontin has on the patient, the doctor that unwittingly prescribed it, the DEA's effort to get to the bottom of the issue, and the legal aspect of the lawyers who try to put Purdue and Richard Sackler out of business.
Perfectly Cast Lead Roles Elevate 'Dopesick' This portion of the article could have also been labeled "The Horrible Miscasting of Matthew Broderick," but even if the actor brought what he could to the role of Richard Sackler, this is another area that earns Dopesick a win. Not only is Michael Stuhlbarg a far more appropriate choice for the role of an evil and greedy corporate devil, his macabre and ghoulishly detached presence is exactly what the doctor ordered.
Chalk another win for Dopesick in the juxtaposition of the two main characters responsible for delivering the killer drug into the hands of the doctors who then prescribe them. Will Poulter's performance as Purdue sales rep Billy Cutler is given with all manner of nuance and finesse. The exchanges between him and Keaton are some of the most memorable and impactful in the show.
