The most positive review

This could have been quite good. As a black comedy, there was a lot of potential. Unfortunately, as is so often the case with the Western media, this film has had the life sucked out of it by "the message".
All flavours of "the message" are front and centre, humorlessly silencing, any potential for genuine black humour. Its a true shame too, because the book this is based upon, is pretty decent, as is the cast they have brought together, for this production.
Regrettably, entertainment comes a distant second to lecturing, leaving only a dry husk in its wake.
In summary, no amount of quality acting can overcome this incessant need to inject what is essentially, politicised woke messaging, into films and series. Its akin to being in a weird version of the USSR, where entertainment always has a political subtext. A solid pass from me.

Certificate:

R (Under 17 requires accompanying parent or adult guardian 21 or older. The parent/guardian is required to stay with the child under 17 through the entire movie, even if the parent gives the child/teenager permission to see the film alone. These films may contain strong profanity, graphic sexuality, nudity, strong violence, horror, gore, and strong drug use. A movie rated R for profanity often has more severe or frequent language than the PG-13 rating would permit. An R-rated movie may have more blood, gore, drug use, nudity, or graphic sexuality than a PG-13 movie would admit.)
