I didn't want to write anything when you were musing about how dirty/corrupt it was going to be. I thought I'd let you discover that yourself.
I actually liked the second one even more than the first and it loses none of the pace (or corruption), but the first one has one of the best scenes. I won't give it away except to mention that a swimming pool might be involved.
