It was a dark humor comedy that involved criminals.

I totally missed the "humour" part. The movie was more depressing than it was funny - not a wacky comedy as the trailer promised.

You said you wanted “dark humor” and now lament the lack of “wacky comedy”?

Yes, I wanted a dark humour wacky comedy. Like Snatch and the like. That is what the trailer clearly promises.

Guy Ritchie isn’t dark humor. It’s more traditional British crime comedy.

Fine, but my point is that the "In Bruges" trailer suggested that this movie would also be just that: a "traditional British crime comedy". Instead, it is what it is.

Dude. All dark comedy comes off as “depressing” for some people. It’s dark. Snatch isn’t at all dark, so stop externalizing your idiotic mistake. Go watch Bullet Train and google genres.

Most dark comedies CANT really show what they’re doing in the trailer. It’s partly a marketing thing, and partly your duty to know what you’re watching

That was so wacky when they burned down the caravan with Brad Pitts mom inside.
