Possibly it matured.
It wasn't awful, but it was basically an anaemic and straightforward detective story (that still had to rely on periodic plodding exposition) padded to full running time with some admittedly pretty visuals and occasional cod-philosophising. I get it, dystopian future, there's neon, it rains a lot, women are basically all holographic strippers, and everyone looks like they've just been turfed out of a Wetherspoons.
