If you want a movie without violence, drugs, car chases or sex, watch it! While Sam and Joon's budding relationship seems clichéd and humor applied to Joon's condition a bit brutal, there's something profound about it And the enduring truth - laughter and love heal the intractable, they show trust and respect. Psychopathic issues are masked in this film, it sends a message of hope, this film is good because it succeeds A great way to tell the story of two psychopaths and never make them helpless victims. Instead, at worst, they're just turbulent and funny characters, and at best, they're absolutely charming and warm!
