Just stick to the original: Fate is always more fetching than formula.
Geoff Pevere, Globe and Mail
Overview
In London, a drug dealer grows increasingly desperate over the course of a week after a botched deal lands him in the merciless clutches of a ruthless crime lord. The more desperate his behavior, the more isolated he becomes until there is nothing left standing between him and the bullet his debtors intend to fire his way.

The characters that populate Pusher are surprisingly naive and hardly the brightest of bulbs. So much for the image of the wily, street-smart criminal.
Linda Barnard, Toronto Star

The chief problem here is that Frank is neither likable nor very bright. For the most part, you're thinking, go ahead, bust his kneecaps.
Tom Long, Detroit News

Prieto does what he can to keep things roaring along, but the overall effect is not a lot more stimulating than your average diet cola.

We're ... left to cheer someone simply because there's really no one else to root for.
