A film of two halves

Rating: 7/10 (5 March 2017)

Halfway in you'd seen everything they were going to continue to offer. Then the stakes dried up. The ending became inevitable and the narrative took on an insipid faux dramatic slope of boredom and monosyllabic communication.
Again, the first half of the film offered a satisfyingly squalid departure, but it ran out of steam, I resorted to a tried and tested type. At a push, a 7 because it dared to go (R), and it dared to show that everything decays.
