Consistently entertaining
This film is unusual (in our current landscape) in its ability to remain entertaining to the end. It's kind of a mystery, thriller suspense with a splash of film noir, and while it may not win any awards, it manages to keep the audience invested without any agenda.
Well acted and no wokeness in sight.
Benicio del Toro is fantastic.

Pha-Q woke
Weak Second Half Brings It Down A Lot
No woke I notice in this one. Great acting and directing. The first half is a very well done murder mystery detective story. At the halfway point if starts to fall apart though as the story takes a hard turn into a sort of convoluted paranoia, conspiracy corruption plot. The pace slows drastically and is brought down by a lot of unnecessary red herrings and loose ends. What was the point of the whole contractor paranoid nonsense that went nowhere anyway. The entire home remodel contractor story went nowhere and could of been cut out, shortened the film and nothing would of been lost. Overall not a bad movie and worth a watch just be prepared for an ending with a lot of unanswered questions and plot devices that go nowhere.
