Angry Movie Lurker Honest Review 64: Haywire 2011 (3 STARS)

Beautiful freelance covert operative Mallory Kane is hired out by her handler to various global entities to perform jobs which governments can't authorize and heads of state would rather not know about. After a mission to rescue a hostage in Barcelona, Mallory is quickly dispatched on another mission to Dublin. When the operation goes awry and Mallory finds she has been double crossed, she needs to use all of her skills, tricks and abilities to escape an international manhunt, make it back to the United States, protect her family, and exact revenge on those that have betrayed her.

Gina Carano.

This is an action movie which starts half way through and goes back and then continues on, the lead actress (Gina Carano, former MMA and was ranked third in the world in her weight category at one stage, was the Gladiator "Crush" on American Gladiators and currently trying acting in this Stephen Soderbergh movie), the movie is a little slow at times but is made up for by the fight scenes which while not Bourne quick are good all the same and she prefers the close combat way out most times, it's a double cross movie with a some revenge thrown in, she's been given a good cast around her with Michael Douglas, Antonio Banderas, Ewan McGregor, Michael Fassbender etc......

Gina doesn't do too bad with the role and I hope she's given more in the future, the locations are good especially Dublin as she was running by places I did bouncer on the door and places where I was a chef (memories), the action when it came was good, the story was a little weak but it's well worth a watch especially if you like Gina (she's very beautiful).......

The one word ending made me smile.........
