weird. entertaining. rushes a little too quickly into the big reveal, then doesn’t allow us enough time to live in the world afterwards. still super creative and a triumph in dark comedy satire!
also, i know we’re meant to feel for Nella eventually letting the whole thing happen but i found the ending disappointing and anger inducing. i know it’s supposed to be unsatisfying but that just pissed me off tbh lol.
