The review by PlanecrazyIkarus hits the nail on the head - a good adaptation that loses effectiveness as it (over)reaches.
Good acting, but a little too over-the-top at times. Faithful to the text, but decidedly modern. Various forms of high-contrast lighting on plain sets (and a few technical gimmicks) provide a stark, stylish vision that holds initial attention but fast becomes tedious.
Sure to inspire good after-screening conversation, worthy of a few bonus points for its weirdness!
Final Grade: 6/10.
Worth a look.
