About
You might like this if you enjoy grim, flawed-detective crime stories with a seedy 80s feel, somewhat in the vein of The Two Jakes or Against All Odds; Not for you if you want a tight, fast-moving thriller.
Pros: gritty 80s atmosphere; strong lead performance; dark, tense mood | Cons: messy story; slow stretches; shouty climax
