Has got to one of the best movies of the year. Saoirse Ronan acted the part perfectly and Blanchet and Bana gave stellar perfomances as well. The tevhno style soundtrack really makes the unique action scenes come alive in new ways. With several plot twists it makes for quite an awesome movie.Was this review helpful? Yes | No

This is a superior movie, with a rivetingmixture of action justaposed with the ethical and personal issues of human expermmentation. The pace is slow, not boring. most of the plost is in the psychological awakening of Hanna. Cinematography is excellent, and Saoirse Ronan (Hanna) is the camera's friend. Acting by the entire cast is excellent. A superior film for film-goers that like to think as well as see action.Was this review helpful? Yes | No

Savvy and smart action movie where a young lady is discovering herself and putting her skills to the test. A tad slow in parts, but worth the sit through. All actors were solid and Cate Blanchett's character is cold as ice. Intense soundtrack by the Chemical Brothers also. This movie does not overwhelm you with action, and sometimes that's a good thing.Was this review helpful? Yes | No

It's been a long time since former OSS agent Marissa Cortez Wilson (Jessica Alba) went chasing bad guys.

And despite the fact that Marissa's husband, Wilbur (Joel McHale), earns his income chasing spies on TV, he hasn't a clue that his mild-mannered wife was once a cloak-and-dagger woman. Now the nefarious Timekeeper (Jeremy Piven) has hatched a plot for world domination, prompting the OSS to summon Marissa back to active duty. When Rebecca and Cecil discover their stepmother's tightly guarded secret, they realize they might be the only hope for getting her out of a tight jam and foiling the Timekeeper's evil plan.
