About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a fast, weird dark-fantasy ride with big action moments and a playful, chaotic tone; Not for you if you need a clear, tightly explained story—think Grimm or Sputnik.

Pros: wild imaginative set pieces; striking surreal style; energetic action bursts | Cons: confusing crowded story; uneven pacing; characters hard to like
