About
If you like uncomfortable, pitch-black anthology-style stories about flawed people, this may land for you, especially if you’ve seen Life During Wartime or Palindromes; Not for you if animal mistreatment, bleak humor, or depressing vignettes are dealbreakers.
Pros: bold dark comedy; eccentric character snapshots; occasional poignant moments | Cons: bleak upsetting content; uneven disjointed segments; often unfunny pacing
