Absolutely Fantastic
Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.
A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Too far fetched to be taken anywhere near seriously. Always love seeing Salma but this film becomes predictable and boring way too soon. Kill Bill does it so much better and its a shame. Salma needs more parts that give her a chance to really act. Frida is an excellent example. Hope later opportunities are better for her than this.
This movies is hilarious! The plot line vanished shortly after the movie started, but who cares, it was just too much fun. Salma is just so hot and sexy, both vulnerable and invincible. There is so much blood, gore and coincidental last second misses by her enemies that it is laughable, but again who cares because Salma is so much fun! It is a movie that works from points of extreme, Without someone as hot as Salma, the whole movie would flop. She is so fit looking, so delicious! And good with a gun. It is never clear what the movie is all about, but they say in the movie, "that's a whole lot of dead whores". That pretty much sums it up.
I like action movies that's why maybe i like this movie. Oh man i love the way it is done because maybe Salma is hot and can roll. The numerous death scenes are great and Salma spends the movie showing off her fantastic body and thats a win win for all of us. So, in a nutshell, if you like looking at Mamacita's like Salma and lots of blood and death then 'give it a go. I don't think this movie was made to be taken seriously.Yes its written perfectly and some of the acting are even enough for enjoyment. Honestly i enjoyed and looks entertaining to me. What are movies made for? So accept the way how it is being made. Cheers enjoy!
My dad likes to ask me sometimes regarding action movies: "Is there a purpose to all this?" There IS no purpose. The whole movie is one big, fat excuse to slam a bunch of crazy action scenes at you. As an exercise in brutal violence, it succeeds. It's got style, and it's even got some genuinely funny moments of black humour to go along with it. The movie's premise is absolutely ridiculous and stupid, and laughably insane, but it plows through it with an almost completely straight face. In that respect, the movie is a deadpan masterpiece.Anyway. Salma Hayek's acting, along with Joe Lynch's neat direction, are both too good for this type of movie. This is a modern-day exploitation film at its most blatant. This is Die Hard with Salma Hayek and the Yakuza. It's limited to one floor of an apartment building as a setting, and it's set during Christmas, and the main character is trapped in one room. Only unlike Die Hard, this movie has some truly cruel material to make you squirm in it. I mean wow.Despite its flaws (and it has a lot of them) it was an entertaining movie. It's shallow, it's not all too smart, and for people with weak stomachs, it's pretty much unwatchable. Its low- budgetness isn't all that obvious unless you REALLY look for it, and most of its effects are refreshingly practical. It's nice to see blood squibs in action movies this day and age, instead of the regular old CGI clouds we're stuck with eighty (or ninety?) percent of the time. Salma Hayek hasn't been this good since Desperado, and that was freaking 1995.
