Reviews
StunnaKrypto Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.
Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
Jemima It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.
Kinley This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
