I can watch them over and over again too. Just surprised that almost every action scene was in the trailer.

TBH, I watched the trailer a couple of times and I don't remember one key scene that Travis noted. Something tells me, most people won't remember it either.

 

[Tino]

Probably. But it's not a big deal anyway. Like you said. It didn't take away from my enjoyment of the film either. Just an observation.

If anyone is looking for an action movie with insanely beautiful women, I think they'll be happy with it.

Sounds like a good studio pitch to me although my wife might give me a look for saying it.

 

[TravisR]

Not to me as those action scenes I can watch over and over again.

The 'continuous' hallway action scene was pretty amazing.

Yeah, my son and I thought that scene alone made the movie...

David Leitch knows how to direct fight sequences. After his work in the John Wick films and then directing this one, I'm looking forward to Deadpool 2. Not to mention all of his stunt work in prior films, he has quite a resume.

That being said, the movie is still overall cool. If anyone is looking for an action movie with insanely beautiful women, I think they'll be happy with it.

And who isn't?
Can't wait to see Charlize kick some ass.

I'm going to be seeing this tonight at an AVX theatre, then jump over and watch Dunkirk in 70mm IMAX. Figure if I'm going to make a ridiculously long trip to watch a movie, I might as well make it worth my while and watch two of them. Liable to be a rough drive home tomorrow , though.

This was good, but not great. I think part of what hurts this feeling was expectations for me; this movie was sold in some ways like a "John Wick" type film. It wasn't that; this was a great spy thriller. Keeping that in mind, and once I realized that is what I was in for, I really enjoyed it.

 

[Edwin-S]

Good spy flick. It was like Salt on steroids. The trailers gave away the action scenes, but not really any details of the story. There was a lot twists and turns it.

There were only two parts that I didn't like. The first was the

the sex scene between her and the French agent.

That whole thing just felt shoe-horned in there because

Spoiler

well.....we have to have the obligatory homosexual theme that appears to be de riguer in H'wood films and TV shows now.

The second thing was Percival's

Spoiler

expository monologue near the end. It was too long.

Other than those nits, I thought it was a good and brutal updating of an old school spy story. Worth picking up on 4K when it comes out.

 

[Johnny Angell]

This move is not cut or shot like the Bourne movies, is it? If so, it's out for me.

Not at all. More like the John Wick films as has been mentioned.

 

[SamT]

I must be lucky I don't remember the trailer.

 

[Patrick Sun]

I liked the lighting, color grading and use of gels in this film.

Yeah. This kind of seals the deal for me, too!

Film marketing should all be THIS EASY!

I'm not sure how much Peg will like this film, but I'm sure you would love it.

 

[Mike Frezon]

She wouldn't go near it. No films for her in which things blow up or get shot at.

It's sometimes...limiting.

Sometimes? That's an understatement..

Surprised this didn't do better.

That is surprising. Saw the movie and thought it had blockbuster potential.
