Crazy intro, to say the least, violence begets violence in the end. It's a rather simple story up front, but I feel that's exactly what they want us to think.
So much intrigue, and so many unanswered questions as to the finality of the clues given.
Now for some back story, and it's substantial and one that I can really get into. What a finale, and you must see for yourself to truly appreciate it.

This is pretty dull
This is not as fun as the description gives you cause to think. It is pretty dull, with an uninspired and uninspiring protagonist, formulaic antagonists, and a look that is costly, but certainly does not look it. While I can see the appeal, this odes not land, and leaves you thinking why a premise that could have been that good turned out this bad.
