3/5
There are several strong suits to Tar that bubble to the surface and keep your interest...However, Tar does get stuck in some of the muck that weighs it down with a lack of clarity and intent. Go to Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film Oct 23, 2020
1.5/5
This one is destined for the bottom of the bargain bin, where it will probably get stuck. Go to Full Review Frank Swietek One Guy's Opinion Oct 22, 2020

5.5/10
