i've seen some R&R movies and most of the classics were awful, vile pieces of media, so i was interested when i heard about this, as it seemed to deconstruct said genre's tropes. unfortunately, even though it has solid dramatic scenes, that stinker of an ending just makes this tonally incoherent movie feel worse than it actually is. the cast, particularly mulligan, killed it and there's a pop sensibility i really enjoyed. but it bears all the hallmarks of a first feature, and my god that ending was terrible. i don't even wanna touch that lmao.

This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

The best episode of Narcos I have ever seen.
