“Dope King” (*1/2 out of four) was an interminable urban melodrama made for dopes about a street hustler (Pha’rez Lass) who is shot in the head and left for dead and then tries to leave behind his life in the streets and as a drug dealer but the kidnapping of his fiancee (Jennifer Figuereo) and his colossal debt to the Russian mob (led by Catherine Curtin) leave him few choices and seal his doom. A few scattered and effective moments throughout but film’s self-indulgent unpleasantness and overlength will likely numb you and wear you out. Yet another film derived from (i.e. ripped off) from “King Of New York” and also “New Jack City” but is a far cry from either.
