About
You may enjoy this if you like offbeat, emotional dramas that mix tenderness with unsettling moments and a slow-building sense of danger; Not for you if you want light viewing or neat realism, like The Good Neighbor.
Pros: touching odd-couple bond; strong performances; memorable villain | Cons: dark tonal shift; implausible plot turns; heavy-handed message
