About
You may like this if you enjoy cops-versus-robbers thrillers with a stylized edge and a personal rivalry at the center, somewhat in the vein of Firestorm or Never a Thief; Not for you if you want a deeply original plot.
Pros: tense cat-and-mouse chase; engaging performances; bold visual style | Cons: familiar crime story; uneven character development; some forced moments
