I really enjoyed this film, but I know where your coming from. I'm a huge fan of Gina's fighting, all of her moves were true to the techneque of muay thai and abit of ju jitsu, and to say shes not a very experienced she supprised me, I actually felt that Ewan McGregor's performance was fairly weak. Overall I think it was enjoyable, I think the realistic fight scenes were what made it stand out, but its definatly not the film it could have been.
This movie just felt dull and lazy. Bad script, horrible pacing, terrible score. You didnt once care at all for Gina's character, all you cared about was for the next action scene which werent all that good. If you want to see a baddass fem fatal movie go watch HANNA.
just saw it, kinda disagree with you on this one Tom. I quite enjoyed it as a Soderbergh-esque take on the spy genre. But I can see the points you made, good review
What were the aspects such as cinematography, set design, etc. like? I ask cos it was filmed in Dublin, close enough to where I live. Very unusual to find a big film like this shot on Abbey Street!
Awww damn Tom, let me down easy lol I was looking foward to this thing for awhile since I saw the trailer, and I'm a fan of Banderas as well. Sucks to hear it's not that good :/ Maybe I'll check it out myself, but I trust your reviews so I won't get my hopes up anymore lol Thanx for the review though, keep up the good work
