About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a wild, highly stylized crime standoff with intense mood and minimal hand-holding, like Amer or The Strange Color of Your Body's Tears; Not for you if you need deep characters or subtle storytelling.
Pros: bold visual style; tense standoff setup; striking seaside setting | Cons: thin character depth; little humor; loud, unsubtle tone
