Give me a good murder mystery to get me into the Christmas spirit.

So we have a crime story about two guys, who aren't all that smart, try to set up a plan to get cash by robbing two people. The thing with this plan is they of course don't set it up right, get anxious, and then fuck up as they always do. See Dev and Alex are just looking to buy a new car before Dev moves out of state. They get a sweet deal...or so they think. When they go to buy the car from Andrew and his partner. Shit goes sideways and now everyone scrambling to fix things.

I really did like the characters in this. Both Dev and Alex are sympatric enough to feel bad for their situation but not completely "pure happy nice guys". That leaves Andrew and his buddy. See both are the side of the coin of being forced into criminal actions, but Andrew isn't really. He does this out of desperation and so when the situation goes deeper, and people get hurt, he's left wondering what he is capable of doing.

I liked the plotting, the art for the atmosphere and story works really well too. The thing I wish we had more time with was Dev and Alex since I wanted to see more of the back and forth. Even if we got what they were doing inside the cabin at the time Andrew wasn't there. It could have lead to some intense moments.

But overall, very enjoyable crime story that I love to eat up. A 4 out of 5.
