The film carries a gritty tone, showcasing the duality of its protagonist who, after some unfortunate events, ends up straddling the line between good and evil. There's a rawness to the action sequences, and you can really feel the tension building as he grapples with his moral compass. The pacing can be a bit uneven at times, especially in the second act, but it adds to that sense of unpredictability.
