About
'The Chaser is a clever riff on cops-and-criminals formalism that interpolates old-fashioned plot devices (a missing girl, a cryptic phone number, an epicene serial killer, a corrupt mayor) into a Borgesian web of forking paths and gleeful MacGuffins, ultimately deriving its primary tension not from the possibility or garishness of corporeal harm—though there's plenty of that both off-screen and on—but from a lust for inductive discovery that haphazardly teeters on the precipice of genre cliché.'
