Cons: drama quality, writing quality
The gore is similarly divisive. Several critics found it lurid, fetishistic, or unnecessary, while another embraced the blood-soaked excess as part of the fun.

Cons: faithfulness to source material, violence level
The violence can be bloody, abusive, and emotionally punishing, including beatings and self-harm imagery. Several sources treat that intensity as a serious viewing caveat.
