What sets it apart
May contain story progression spoilers
Hit-men buddies navigate bizarre events, sleazy intrigues, killings, and a drug-retrieval mission in an irreverent register.
The premise explicitly places the underworld of crime alongside show-business drama and soap-like intrigue.
The plot foregrounds silicon-enhanced sexuality, dangerous women, drugs, kidnappings, and people being killed with deliberately exaggerated energy.
Max and Sylvester must retrieve missing drugs while also saving a kidnapped delivery boy.
