Angel of Death (I) (2009)
5/10
Middling Zoe Bell vehicle
8 November 2014
Warning: Spoilers
Zoe Bell is possibly the best female action star at the moment: she has a powerful yet feminine and sexy body, and the expertise to use it in a lethal way. "Angel Of Death" has some brutal, hardcore woman vs. man (or men) fight scenes, and it is competently directed, masking its low budget pretty well. But while it mimics the extreme, graphic violence of early Tarantino, it has very little of his wit or humor; and without those qualities, it sometimes comes across as cheap exploitation, just as the bad language comes across simply as bad dialogue. I would like, however, to note the performances of Jake Abel and Vail Bloom - they make a convincingly twisted brother-and-sister team of psychos. ** out of 4.
