Mmmm. It was OK, in fact, I was surprised. It was better than OK
I was - whatever - absorbed?
PI unearths plot, and pays the price. OK. It wasn't too noir, wasn't over-hip. Mena Suvari (bra on sex scene contract not withstanding) was real, and genuine, and it could almost have been a romcom. (I don't think I've ever had a sex scene with bras on, personally).
And then, it just suddenly revives. A new character, a new phase, act 2.
And then, suddenly, Act 3. People stop being who they were, and use guns. Who knew? Even, when it all calms down, another twist, and we have act 3.1.
My son-in-law is the acid test. If there are plot holes, he disses the film, and I wish I hadn't suggested it.
This got a 'pass' on his radar, (though he agreed with the 'stupid no tits rule'.
Worth a look. I was surprised, a few times. And that no longer happens often.
