- Who'll love it
- Tailor-made for people who like their stories with a little danger and fans of a well-timed joke. Low effort, high reward: just press play. If you loved Blindspotting or A Sun, start here.
- The mood
- Funny with heart.
- The pace
- Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 1 hr 58 min.
