About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a darker, more overtly gruesome thriller that leans into a notorious villain’s charm and menace; Not for you if you dislike slow pacing, contrived plotting, or extreme violence like in Copycat.
Pros: tense cat-and-mouse moments; striking Italian setting; memorable villainy | Cons: uneven, fragmented story; less subtle than before; heavy, sometimes cartoony gore
