This movie is like an overly long episode of Penny Dreadful that focuses on just one sub-plot and one and a half interesting characters. If that sounds enjoyable to you, then by all means, watch this film.
The acting is great, the movie is well made, the plot is not great (a strong baseline but goes nowhere, not really), the dialogue is okay, and overall it is just feels blah. Some very cool scenes, but for the most part it was more like, "hey look at this actor give a mean monologue!" or "wow, look how well we shot this!" or "see how seamless this editing was!" or "see how ugly and grey the streets are but we used it to make it ATMOSPHERIC!" You get the idea.
They set the movie up for a sequel, but I'm not the least bit interested. However, the main actor and the actor that played his brother, I would be interested in seeing more of their work. Hopefully, in something inspired as opposed to trying to show off technical prowess.
