Kuhusu filamu hii

Oscar®-winner Charlize Theron stars as elite MI6's most lethal assassin and the crown jewel of her Majesty's secret intelligence service, Lorraine Broughton. When she's sent on a covert mission into Cold War Berlin, she must use all of the spycraft, sensuality and savagery she has to stay alive in the ticking time bomb of a city simmering with revolution and double-crossing hives of traitors. Broughton must navigate her way through a deadly game of spies to recover a priceless dossier while fighting ferocious killers along the way in this breakneck action-thriller from director David Leitch (John Wick).

The idea was great, the execution was inconsistent. A female spy—that isn't a princess—gives as hard as she takes. Great potential but ended up somewhere between the gritty John Wick 1 and the hollow John Wick 2. There were some nice "single cut" fight sequences (a la asian martial arts) and the combat felt weighty and with consequence. That said, there were the usual "Hollywood" style fights with silly action-cuts that undid the great long shoots. I loved that Charlize Theron's character more than once looked vulnerable and scared of the situations she was in. The visual damage she took throughout the film was a nice change to the usually clean-cut nature of action movies who's stars are all about looking pretty. The plot was a bit meh, and the era it was set in gave it some nice aesthetics.

Confusing and neither clever or that interesting. I didn't really feel I was pulled in, I didn't really care about any of the characters.The love interest seemed fake, as did Charlize super hero fighting ability. The most interesting thing was the Berlin filming location. Lots of overly stylistic smoking. Recommend you give it miss. Logan Lucky film is better.

No stunt double for the stairwell scene. FANTASTIC!!! Not your typical spy movie but interesting all the same. Great to see that not all action movies rely technology twists in the story. Gritty 80's soundtrack is perfect. Love the whole F.U mentality.
