Standout Aspects

Acting

Kingsley weaponizes charm, makes you root for a war criminal.

Writing

Dialogue that dances around atrocity, never names it directly.

Best for:Solo: Late night when you want to feel something complicated.·Rewatch: Second viewing hits different once you know his lies.
Heads up:Disturbing: Implied genocide; protagonist never faces real consequences.
