Being a Hero

Similar story with similar drama twists and both are crimes with involvement with evil and looking for a strong main character with cooperation.

- Same screenwriters.
- About drugs.
- Both have very slight romances.
- We follow characters in both the police and the drug ring.
- Friendship and found family are important aspects in both.
- Overall dark themes and violence.

In my opinion "The First Shot" is much better but "Being a Hero" has interesting things as well and a very different vibe.
