Great back and forth between the characters and, no matter how crazy the concept gets, it remains fun and fresh to the end.

The Bloody Olive's intelligent bout of noir genre subversiveness wants for all-out hilarity but excels through the sheer engagement with its farcical nature, its preposterous twists and culmination defined by a cinematic seriousness that lends itself quite ingeniously to its twisted sense of Christmas spirit. Barbara Stanwyck, eat your heart out.
