About
You may like this if you enjoy dark, offbeat crime stories with a wild lead performance and a twisted sense of humor; Not for you if you want a straightforward mystery or a consistently serious tone.
Pros: intense lead performance; darkly funny moments; strong sense of atmosphere | Cons: uneven tone; scattered story flow; can feel overlong
