I don't mind when teens like 18-20 years old do stupid stuff, yelling or hysterically crying, but when 40 years old cops do the same - it's just lazy writing. This trope works very good in such films like Freaky (2020) where teens under attack but not with flock of seasoned policeman.
And about tone. This flick wants to be a little dark sarcastic dramedy with some gore moments and there is a possibility for that, but editing, sound design, all this kind of stuff works against it. So 'Spiral' kinda underdeveloped and lazy but has potentially good story, some good acting chops and worthy production.
