Why do people feel compelled to compare every movie to a certain cinematic or literary standard. What is your expectation for a movie like this when you make decision to watch it? This movie is perfect for what it is. The characters are terrific and the plot ridiculously wonderful. Willem Dafoe is just amazing - like King Charles from the recent theatrical production of Hamilton. I watched it with my teenage boys the first time and it was awesome. Think of a violent version of Ferris Bueller's Day Off and you'll be in the right state of mind. Just enjoy the ride for goodness sake :-)
