7/10. Dang. Don't get me wrong, it's a good film. It had great great action, the actors were great as well. But dang I feel a sense of disappointment for this film. Because its directed by the guy who made Casino Royale which is my favorite bond film and I thought it was going to be the girl version of James bond which would be so cool. Overall it was a good film but could have been so so so much better.

Amazing movie. As per other reviewers, rhetorical questions, lol. Yes, Maggie Q was the star of the uber hot, TV show, called "Nikita," which was actually based of an old French movie from the 80's, called, "Le Femme Nikita," (which was subtitled in English. That was considered the canon film. It was a great old movie. Back in early 90's, there's an English version, called, "Point Of No Return," staring Gabriel Byrne & Jane Fonda. "The Professional," movie is similar story, younger kid assassin.

A quietly, excellent, Hollywood action movie with a touch more humor and class. It's up to you whether or not you like the end product.
