Uneven mess

I love the clear inspiration from comic books. Very artistic style. The intermittent use of b&w is gorgeous. Ewa Aulin is a dream. Simply stunning.

However, the plot is a mess. The pacing is a mess. The tone is all over the place. The overall narrative has a mystery/detective/crime genre feel to it, but there are so many jarring departures into comedy(?) These tonal bungles kill the suspense and the believability.
