Excellent, a Must See
The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Blistering performances.
