Wogma rating: Catch on TV/online for sure
Quick review: Gory and done well enough for you to want the stomach-churning onslaught to stop. Great performances and aestheticscannot build a connection between two stories that are forced together into a film.
(Available on Netflix)
Wogma rating: Add to “To Watch” list, watch some day
