Sorry to say it, but this film's plot is incredibly weak, as well as too on the nose with the political commentary. The cinematography is great, as well as the lead's preformance. But Cuck feels more cartoonish in it's narrative then Joker, a movie literally derived from a comic book. I'd recommend watching this given time to burn, but it's in no way a "deep" film. If anything, I'd say that the screenwriters spent too much time trying to make the movie controversial, and not enough time trying to make this world feel real.
