Exterritorial

The story line has been done before so basically it's the delivery that can make it a good or bad movie. In this case, the action, the emotions, and overall acting was spot on.

First off the main character is painted as a grueling soldier and through the movie you can see why but at the same token she takes a beating! She you praise her for her determination and strength.

When it comes to the story, it was well written. At first it was corny at best ( bad wording I know) but then in the end it ties in nicely and everything is explained with no loose ends. So I won't spoil anything but just watch till the end and you can see how it plays!

So yes, recommend on a rainy day.

I think watching this movie is anyway a complete waste of time. They make you feel the USA consulate in Germany is less secure than any supermarket in the city! So disappointing.

I guess the idea of the movie was really nice but I guess if could have been in a more "realistic" professional way!

The actors did their best I guess but they needed more support from the director.

What I liked about the movie is the originality of the movie , so idea was somehow new and creative. It could have been utilized in a much better way. But we unfortunately felt so disappointed by the sequence of events.

Since several years now, the movie industry is literally invaded by a gigantic, huge, strong female characters spree. Long, long after the DNA of this kind of movies, I mean NIKITA, in 1990. Of course there were the seventies exploitation, grindhouse flicks - women in jail or vigilante rape and revenge plots. Tons of them, but it was the glorious and forever lost seventies, a period when everything was permitted. That said this German tv movie is not that bad, a bit lame yes, but not that lousy. The characters rather convincing and the directing honest, straight. I was rather satisfied, but unfortunately the ending is so predictable and forgettable too. I expected something a bit more original, more unpredictable.

Checking out this movie to see Lera who will star in One Piece and I wasn't disappointed with her supporting role here now on to the main movie... it's not bad at all? Slow start but it flows quickly after.

I read some reviews so I was prepped to watch some unrealistic fight scenes but honestly I think they did good with grounding it. Jeanne Goursand has a fit body compared to Gal Gadot who played Wonder Woman but didn't have the muscles for it. Jeanne isn't so muscular but is well defined so I can believe she can fight. While she fought several times through the course of the film she never really fought too many at a time and honestly she always just barely wins. Girl was black and bruised each time so I applaud them for it. She's not superwoman downing her opponent with no issue.

Now the plot itself is predictable this isn't rocket science. We've seen movies like this already a parent out to save their child. So yeah that's out of the way don't look for anything deep in here. There's some questionable moments some are answered in the end but some are meh. Acting is okay overall it's not something they'll win awards for but they worked for this kind of film.

So overall if you're just in it for the action and simpleness I think you'll have a fun time. There's a lot of movement during fight scenes which I really liked. It gave that fluid feel to it. They're not shy with the blood and making it messy. I had a good time with this.

I don't want to give anything away other than to say this was a decent thriller. The only annoying thing was seeing a woman with small stature successfully take down several dozen 200 pound soldier men throughout the film with her fists and physical training.

Other than that silliness, it was fun, the characters were decent and I kept looking at Dougray Scott and imagining what he would've been like playing the roll of Wolverine if only fate hadn't changed his filming schedule and forcing Hugh Jackman to replace him in the part.

As for this film, I won't give away if the twist is all mental illness or if it's just like a more epic Flightplan plot and I'll let you find out for yourself. Decent fast paced film and good performances from Dougray and the rest of the cast.
