Kairo McCoy, a CEO by day (but goon by night), gets the surprise of a lifetime from the fling (Brooklyn) he was searching for in the daytime with a flashlight. It started out great, but then he became an unhinged jerk without many redeeming qualities. I like the “touch her and die” trope, but this needed more balance. Their chemistry was believable, but the conflicts/mystery were wild yet underwhelming.
Graphic: Violence and Murder
Moderate: Sexual content
Minor: Kidnapping
