About
You may enjoy this if you like dark comedies that swerve into crime and keep you guessing, similar to Flypaper or The Big Hit; Not for you if you want a steady tone, likable leads, or believable motivations.
Pros: unpredictable twists; dark, offbeat humor; energetic performances | Cons: uneven tone shifts; unlikeable characters; implausible plotting
