Gratuitous violence
17 November 2022
The first episode of this was intriguing enough to keep me interested, but I stopped 13 minutes into episode 2 because the level of sick and twisted gratuitous violence was just too much to bear and way too unrealistic.

I'm not 100% averse to violence when it fits in with a decent plot and makes sense logically (e.g., I liked 'No Country for Old Men'), but sick twisted gratuitous violence that seems to serve for nothing except shock value passing as "art" is not something I am interested in or condone.

That's too bad because the main male character is an interesting fellow, and the Emily Blunt character wasn't too bad either. Too bad it got ruined by sick and sadistic writing and filmmaking.
