They did almost everything to kill this movie - a shallow story, a very slow pace, bad directing, flat dialogs, drunk cameraman, music video-like editing.
I went to watch this movie because Diane Kruger is a good actress and she acts in good movies and she delivers.
But this time something went very wrong. Although Diane Kruger delivers this time too and she is the strongest actor in the movie, the movie itself just doesn't work.
The plot has a lot of holes. The pace is very slow, I even almost fell asleep at some point.
The dialogs are lateral and don't add to the story.
The cameraman's work is just crazy - there might be a single actress in the frame, but she will be slightly out of focus. Extreme close-ups and choppy editing in fight scenes make them unwatchable. It feels like the movie was shot not for an anamorphic frame it is shown because the framing is very weird - a lot of sliced heads. And yes, the jagged drunk-man camera is in its glory.
For the female badass agents movie the body doubles substitute is very noticeable in every scene, highlighted with the edits when the actress is replaced with a double, which doesn't help to sell the realism at all.
The characters are dull and the story is just very basic and weak.
Wait for it to appear on streaming platforms. Don't waste your money on movie tickets.
