Nerdy males like to fantasize about women kicking ass, but they also don't like to look at women with the ugly stuff, like big muscles and thick bones, that logically allow fighters to give and take damage in the real word. So female action leads are almost always skinny and petite. Haywire is the first butt-kicking babe movie I've ever liked, because Steven Soderbergh recruited an actual MMA warrior princess. When Gina Carano takes down a dude, it's not Hollywood make believe: Gina Carano could actually take that dude down. 10 years 8 months ago -

When the fight scenes and action are happening, it's excellent: raw and realistic but without the fast cutting and cheats that even high-end blockbusters use to make their low-skilled actors look good.
When people are standing around talking, the bad script makes it tedious, even with a hugely impressive cast. In this way it feels like a throwback to the action films of the early 90s when action films would star proper martial artists and pay only perfunctory attention to anything that wasn't the fight scenes. 8 years 4 months ago -
