Reviews
A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.
The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
