Leslie Felperin Guardian As visual wallpaper it’s serviceable enough, providing a constant backbeat of blam-blam gunshots and explosions, mostly at night. Rated: 3/5 Oct 26, 2024 Full Review William Bibbiani TheWrap Canary Black is recognizable as an action movie but it’s neither thrilling nor dramatic enough to qualify as entertainment. Oct 25, 2024 Full Review Todd Jorgenson Cinemalogue Despite some slick and stylish action sequences, this globetrotting high-tech spy thriller is hampered by a formulaic plot that never musters much intrigue or suspense. Nov 8, 2024 Full Review Alistair Lawrence Common Sense Media The movie's epilogue suggests that its makers think there's enough life in these characters for a sequel. But the stakes will need to be raised if any series is to maintain interest. Nov 4, 2024 Full Review Alex Maidy JoBlo's Movie Network Do yourself a favor and skip this one unless you are looking for a movie that reuses the same insult of calling a strong female protagonist a bitch over and over again as she tries to save the world. Rated: 3/10 Nov 4, 2024 Full Review Emiliano Basile EscribiendoCine Despite the familiar genre elements, the movie is entertaining and manages to maintain interest, especially for those who enjoy thrillers without too many pretensions.

Daniel E Great movie!! Kate does a fantastic job and the plot is enjoyable. Definitely worth a watch if you enjoy her movies cus this definitely feels like a Kate beckinsale movie. Lots of action and fighting and she does it all in heeled boots!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/26/25 Full Review Geri R Great Movie. Cant wait for the sequel Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/16/25 Full Review Leigh L This might be the worst action/spy thriller I've ever seen. None of that made any sense. The thinnest grool of a plot line, everyone's dialogue seemed like it was translated and then dubbed into English but it clearly wasn't, and the ending had a real "game is on" vibe but I pray to all the gods and everything holy that they never make a sequel to this. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/10/25 Full Review Sara G Devo ammettere che la performance di Kate non è stata delle migliori, mi aspettavo di più... E certo è una trama ormai vista e rivista, ma alla fine al giorno d'oggi non è molto facile fare qualcosa di diverso, quindi a chi importa. Detto questo, mi piacerebbe vedere il sequel, magari dettagliando di più la storia. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/19/25 Full Review Martin M Generic action thriller. Some distracting vocal dubbing at times. Enjoyable enough. Saying that, I'd be happy watching Kate Beckinsale make a cup of tea. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/14/25 Full Review Graham C A by-the-numbers plot, with poor casting and disappointing performances from many of the cast. Add to that far too many “they just wouldn’t do that” moments, and it all combines to make a must-miss waste of time. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/07/25 Full Review Read all reviews
