About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a fast, goofy crime romp built around outrageous injuries and dark laughs, in a similar vein to Bloody Hell or Super; Not for you if heavy gore and implausible action put you off.
Pros: original pain-free premise; brisk, silly momentum; committed lead performance | Cons: extreme gore overload; implausible, repetitive setpieces; uneven comedy hits
