A scissor-wielding hairdresser with amnesia bumbles through absurd, brisk adventures while feuding factions vie for power.
Campy and pulpy, with absurdist humor. A late-night trip at a brisk pace. Emotionally it carries some weight.
Streaming on Netflix.
Heads up on strong violence and light gore. That is past what the TV-PG on the box suggests. Beyond that, mild language and nothing scary.
Our estimate: fine from about 13, higher than the TV-PG suggests, because of the violence.
How we rate: an AI reads what is known about each title and tags it 0 to 3; we check the tags against a hand-rated set and correct them by hand when readers tell us. Estimates, not a scene-by-scene review. Spot a mistake? Tell us.
Seeking to recover his memory, a scissor-wielding, hairdressing, bungling quasi-assassin stumbles into a struggle for power among feuding factions.
