Agent Provocateur

When this movie was made as La Femme Nikita, it was far more exciting, alluring and entertaining. This Australian incarnation of the girl-raised-to-be-a-government-killer has an extra degree of geopolitical cynicism going for it. But Nikita thrived on the considerable bonuses of a stellar cast, tight direction, and an ostensibly much bigger budget. This one offers a fair dose of splatter, but precious little else of interest between those scenes.
