      • Apr 11, 2012

        Quite an overused idea, the beginning seemed to take quite a while but then the main part (especially her jailing) didn't take very long at all and left me confused about the time span of the film. Acting was decent but nothing special and overall a very obvious film with no guessing to be done.

        I disagree with the consensus, I really enjoyed the film, despite some little flaw, the film proved to be a clever piece of work worth watching

        Offers a few breathtakingly silly (but fun) action scenes, some decent dialogue and even a couple of good laugh lines.
