About
You may like this if you enjoy bleak, neo-noir crime thrillers with slow-burning tension and a standout lead, but Not for you if you want a fast, easy-to-follow plot like London to Brighton or Dark Blue.
Pros: gritty backwoods mood; strong lead performance; suspenseful moments | Cons: slow pacing; unclear dialogue; implausible plot
