About
You may like this if you want a bleak, quiet mystery with a heavy, uncomfortable tone and a serious lead performance; Not for you if you need fast pacing, clear answers, or a lighter crime thriller like Texas Killing Fields.
Pros: dark, brooding mood; strong lead performance; intriguing premise | Cons: slow, dreary pace; weak or predictable story; rushed, unsatisfying ending
