  • Raymond's fights and erratic behavior receive no apparent supervision. — Chris Ryan
  • Arrocas already owns a Malibu home, making the urgency of murdering his parents for business control difficult to understand; elapsed time is unclear. — Chris Ryan
  • Penny could let the phone ring during sex; the counterargument is that an unanswered call might make her husband suspicious or bring him home. — Bill Simmons
  • Murdering his parents seems an extreme business solution for Arrocas, though Tova may be driving the scheme. — Chris Ryan
  • Eight children with another on the way seems excessive for Peck's age, though starting young offers an explanation. — Bill Simmons
  • Criminal contacts instantly know details of a secret shooting despite only a few participants knowing the plan, an unexplained genre convention. — Bill Simmons
