What a wild ride! I don’t want to ruin anything, but you honestly spend the entire time trying to figure out who is the actual bad guy. Told from 2 perspectives and non-linearly, so pieces of the story are doled out in a very particular order and way that leave you making prediction after prediction and still guessing what’s true right up until the end!
