Watch this-
To me- this looks like your standard assassin/government conspiracy film… with a twist: It looks like it doesn’t suck!
Sure sure, I can sit here and scream all day and all night about wanting to see something new come out of Hollywood- but since we all know that that isn’t going to happen, the next best thing I can ask for is to give me a refreshing look at the same thing.
You know- if you’re gonna give us a zombie film, make sure its a romantic comedy, and British… and… i f you INSIST on giving us the same old romantic comedy- make sure that in the end, they don’t end up together… or… if you want to throw a generic assassin/government conspiracy… make it about a 16 year old girl who is the epitome of badassery… alls I’m saying is: from the footage and the story bits they showed us in the trailer, its gonna be a “fresh” point of view… plus… plus… plus… look at the cast!!
Cate… freakin’… Blanchett! Sure… sure… her accent comes across a little… fake- but I guarantee that she gives a wicked performance, its Cate Blanchett… and then there is Eric Bana, alls I gotta say about that is- I’m on board with the Bana.
I will say though… that the font they used for the titles looked like the font from Where the Wild Things Are… which, suffice it to say- is a little off putting… Oh… and did they set it up to say that Hanna is some sort of super soldier? Ala- Captain America, but her dad totally ran to the north pole instead of letting her be a government stoolie? BUT, in the process created a “new kind of monster”? These answers and more- Coming Soon.
My final thought- “Original Score by: The Chemical Brothers” Ya- this probably got me as stoked for this film as I got for Tron when I found out that Daft Punk was doing its score (which they TOTALLY got gypped on the Oscar nod by the way… totally gypped.)
Thoughts?
