'Filth' is a dark comedy that lives up to it's title from a great amount of crude content. The brash humor is often quite funny, due to the gleeful and energetic nature of the whole piece. We follow the fowl exploits of this detective (played by the flawless McAvoy) as he schemes and scams those around him for personal gain. Essentially, it's a character study that dives into some psychological aspects in the latter half. This area becomes a bit heavy, with less emphasis on comedy, but it still entertains all the same. Bring on the filthy fun!
