That's it?? Somehow I expected more surprising and unique stuff to happen but this was as straightforward as it could be, the violence is nothing to write home about either. It's so to the point like it's basically just about a guy who becomes a revenge-based killer after being treated like crap as he would always never stand up for himself (which could be a very compelling idea but the way the film was presented wasn't enjoyable really- a very 'meh' feel to it overall), the white mask being stuck to his face did not add much creativity or any interesting factor to the story...I thought it would've played a very big role in the plot itself but instead it was more of a basic symbolism for letting his repressions set loose. In general it's nothing memorable and is a let down unfortunately, there's not enough excitement or suspense to be felt here but it does have some decent imagery and funny moments here and there.
