About this movie

Blake Lively stars as Stephanie Patrick, a woman on a path of self-destruction after her family is tragically killed in a plane crash. When she discovers the wreck was no accident, Stephanie enters the dark, complex world of international espionage seeking vengeance. Her search leads to Iain Boyd (Jude Law), a former MI6 agent who trains her to hunt down those responsible. With nothing left to lose, Stephanie transforms from victim to assassin and discovers that neither revenge nor the truth are what they appear in this action-packed thriller from the producers of James Bond.

Ratings and reviews

I love Blake Lively & I did enjoy the movie but it had holes in it. She went from being an addict who could hardly do anything for herself to suddenly being this trained assassin who could kill the best. As i said it had holes in the storyline.

Good performance from Blake Lively, but woefully boring for a revenge film. Direction feels aimless, production values feel British, pacing meanders like a Sunday drive in the country with your grandmother, and the lead character employs none of her training, leaving the whole experience feel utterly pointless.

This isnt an action movie with fight scenes, just Blake Lively turning up to peoples places to unskillfully kill them, or try to kill them. Average but ok movie.
