About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a loud, over-the-top comedy built on an incompetent hero and constant chaos; Not for you if you prefer subtle humor, realism, or a tightly plotted thriller like Neon Flesh.
Pros: broad slapstick humor; outrageous situations; fast, silly pace | Cons: crude jokes; uneven tone; thin story
