  THE reverse slasher film, and I love it for that.

  This movie had way fewer mickeys than I was expecting.

  A fun mess. Pattinson nails the character acting super well and the overarching plot is entertaining. The rest is weird? Character motivations are introduced/replaced at odd moments. Superfluous characters (Steve Yeung?), Mark Ruffalo playing Trump in a different movie. Retcons.

  There's a leaner version of this movie somewhere that makes it better, I'm sure, but this editing was lackluster.

  There's a "few bad apples" thesis by the end that didn't sit great with me.

  I did appreciate that pretty much everyone's plans go wrong more often than a House MD episode. I don't think anything anyone in the movie attempted had the desired result.
