I like what this movie was conveying about how people suck, but dark humor is hit or miss with me, and the visuals and the violence were over the top for me. In part it was as if it increasingly became less about being upset that people in this world aren't decent to each other and more about nitpicking over what they personally disliked in others; as if they were just so much better and cooler than everyone else based on their interests and disinterests. That's really just about as crappy of a mentality to have as not considering your actions can affect others; because you're aware enough and kind enough to do so, but not kind enough to accept that people are different and are essentially holding yourself up on a pedestal. But I mean, it's hard for me to get behind "violence is the answer," although it obviously wasn't; because [spoiler]while they "rid" the world of a bunch of its "problems" they also died in the end and the world hadn't changed! There was no useful or meaningful message left behind, only the havoc and terror they wreaked. Instead of trying to do anything positive, they just added more negative to it all.[/spoiler] Also, I think Juno is a pretty great movie! Not perfect, but maybe even deserving of a superb.

**Nabbing a few bad fellows along while saying goodbye to the world.**

Well, I did not expect it to be this good, even after knowing it was praised by many. From the writer, director of 'World's Greatest Dad'. Another black comedy and this even better. About an ordinary middle aged divorcée who hates everything around him, but could not do anything about it. One day when he got fired from his job, followed by discovering he has a tumor, he thinks to put an end his life right away. But then decides to do cleanup the society before his time comes up. Hence begins the path of violence, later a young woman joins him and how long it all goes was briefed.

Seems very familiar, but still worked so good. It's not your 'Bonnie and Clyde' or 'Pretty Poison'. In fact, you can drag as many titles as you can, but still it is quite simple and entertaining. Obviously predictable, including the main twist and several scenes, but the rhythm of the narration was great, keeps us hooked to it for the way it was filmed. It's not about the moral science. It is pretty much a confused or misunderstood situation based theme, especially the conclusion clears out that. So if you don't care anything about those things, particularly in a film, then it is for you.

Unfamiliar faces, but they both in the lead were excellent. The same film with some popular stars would have made a better headline and collection. Not seen quite a nice B film like this in the recent time. I got what I wanted from a film. Especially for a small film like this its exemption in a few areas due to the tight budget, but this film did not have any trouble, just amazing. Yeah, a well made film, from writing to direction, performances, this is a decent hidden gem of its kind.

_7/10_
