It's funny, but it's too dark

What kind of film is this, and what does it want to illustrate?
At the beginning, I thought it was just a pure urban comedy, but at the end, it must be positive, everyone resolved their contradictions and lived happily together. Who knows that in the latter part of the film, the contradictions intensified and the methods became more and more vicious, and I felt that the whole thing was out of control. And the final ending is that people have no good feelings for the old woman at all, and I don't understand whether this film is to express sympathy for the young couple or praise the old woman.
Funny is relatively successful, especially the male protagonist is very good, but the theme is really dark and I don't like it very much.
