Surprisingly boring

Even the bleakest of film noir has a protagonist you can sympathize with to some degree. There’s no one here to root for, no real human element to it. We don’t get to know these people as people, and so it ends up feeling like style over substance. It’s not just a cold worldview, but an unexplained one. The message is unclear, if there is one to be had. There are some noteworthy qualities, especially technical ones, but as a whole the film didn’t do much for me either emotionally or mentally.
