However, now aware that she was the one who blew his fiancée's cover, Nazri goes after Jennifer next, but Syazlin holds him at gunpoint, having realised that he is the Meth Killer and demanding he surrender.

Syazlin is then shot by Farouk, Tony's second mole in the department, who Jennifer kills to cover up her involvement before Sheriff's team reaches them.

Jennifer slips into Syazlin's hospital room and poisons her drinking water but is surprised by Sheriff, who confronts her with evidence of her working for Tony.

The film ends with Sheriff and Syazlin confronting a corrupt judge, seen at the beginning of the movie, that has been turning a blind eye to Tony’s crimes, thus allowing him to walk away scot-free countless of times.

Sheriff: Narko Integriti is the third police-themed film directed by Syafiq Yusof after KL Special Force (2018) and Polis Evo 3 (2023).

The other actors involved in this film are Syafiq Kyle,[1] Azira Shafinaz, Elizabeth Tan, Aaron Aziz, Shaharuddin Thamby, Kodi Rasheed, Esma Daniel, Hazama Azmi and Azri Iskandar.

[2] Shaharuddin and Esma previously acted together in KL Special Force, while Elizabeth starred in Misteri Dilaila and Abang Long Fadil 3 (2022), both directed by Syafiq.

This film is also a project between Syafiq Kyle and Azira Shafinaz together after they previously appeared in television series, including Married Tapi Benci (2016) and One Cent Thief (2022).

[2] The film's principal photography ran for 81 days around Klang Valley from February to May 2023, right after the release of Polis Evo 3, also directed by Syafiq.

[12] Faizal Noar, who previsouly worked with Syafiq Yusof as assistant director for Abang Long Fadil 3 (2022) and Hassan Muthalib were mentioned in the film for "creating" the fictional film for Sheriff, titled Hujan di Kuala Lumpur (Rain in Kuala Lumpur), in which used as a evidence from Nazri for what he do on the night when he was asked by Sheriff.

[21] Originally, the film managed to attracted Warner Bros. staff who have invited to gala night in GSC Mid Valley Megamall.

[22] To promote the film, Skop Productions teamed up with Secret Recipe to give away 15 pairs of gala night premiere tickets, which is a contest called Snap & Win[23].

[42][43] The film receives huge positive reaction from critics and filmmaker for its direction, acting, script and camera movement especially Zul Ariffin and Syafiq Kyle.

[46] Azri Azizan wrote for World of Buzz praised the film after collecting RM6.4 million in 2 days by stating is as "doesn't have to be a comic book movie as long as the plot intrigues the audience and keeps them at the edge of their seats with the twists and turns".

[55] On 22 May, Syafiq Yusof announced the sequel of Sheriff to Harian Metro with Zul Ariffin and Azira Syafinaz set to reprise their roles.

[58] Syafiq debunked fake news alleging PDRM's investigation of Yusof for tarnishing their image, affirming on Twitter that the police granted permission for the film's production.

[59] The film sparked an online debate when a viral video published on 2 June, by a Malaysian TikTok personality named Thaqib Shaker argued that Sheriff's failure to reach box office success in Indonesia is caused by a deep-rooted Indonesian nationalism that dislikes anything about Malaysia.

[60] Another TikTok video made on 3 June, by Syerleena Abdul Rashid, a Malaysian member of parliament (MP) from Bukit Bendera also went viral, said that the film's failure in Indonesia is "unfair" due to the dominance of Indonesian pop culture and creative industry in Malaysia without an "equal reciprocity" and promised to bring a motion to the Malaysian Parliament to limit the influx of Indonesian and foreign media.

Apa-apa pun, saya berterima kasih kepada CGV Cinemas kerana membuka pintu dan memberi peluang untuk filem Malaysia ditayangkan di sana 🙏.

Malaysian netizens surged the comment section and scrutinised the cause of the film's general low reception in Indonesia.

The comment section became controversial when Malaysian netizens started to dehumanising Indonesian people, ranging from using various ethnic slurs, i.e. indon/indog, IQ 78/IQ gorilla (equating Indonesian average IQ to primates), konoha (a derogatory term of Indonesia, from a village mentioned in Naruto), babu (slave or servant), kuli Jawa (Javanese enslaved labour) etc.

To beat the allegation, netizens commented by giving proof that a Thai film How To Make Millions Before Grandma Dies, another Southeast Asian film that is screened concurrently with Sheriff in Indonesia, received a remarkable success in Indonesian theatres, even to the point that the director appreciated the Indonesian public,[70] concluding that it has nothing to do with excessive national pride.

After the chaos, in an X thread, Syafiq released an apology statement to the dispute and to hold responsibility to his previously deleted posts that initially caused the blunder.

Tidak harus persalahkan sesiapa.🙏 Malay: Rakyat Indonesia berHAK untuk memilih filem yg mahu dipertonton.

In the final post, he concluded with a statement that he is responsible for the box office miss, promised to upgrade his prospective films, and thanked the Indonesian public for the opportunity to screen Sheriff there.
