About

You’ll probably like Sweetpea if you enjoy dark comedy revenge stories with a tense, unsettling edge and a strong lead performance; Not for you if you want consistent humor, inventive visuals, or a deeper, more coherent plot like The Gentlemen or Mr Inbetween.

Pros: Ella Purnell standout; dark humor; strong lead | Cons: drab visuals; jokes fall flat; formulaic writing
