Extraterritorial

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.

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.

A mother has to go to the US embassy for a Visa and while there, her son may or may not have been kidnapped. Did he just got lost in the embassy? Was he actually kidnapped? Or is this son of her's just in her head?

I can't talk too much on the story as there is a lot of twists and swerves, and if you are into this, like more as a thriller, it is actually pretty decent. My issue was that i was expecting an action movie, got pumped for that, and this is where the movie fall short.

The protagonist is extremely beautiful, yet strong and toned, i could totally believe her as a fighter, and while the fights were a lot more grounded than i usually like, i can't say i disliked them. The issue was that there wasn't that many of them.

A lot of the movie is exposition, plot twists and so on. So maybe because i was expecting more of an action movie, i saw myself looking at my phone a few times while watching it.

The movie was made in German but as my language is french, i am used to watch movies dubbed in said french so it made no difference for me.

Overall while i didn't dislike the movie per say, i think it came short of my expectations. Maybe i was simply not in the right mindset for a thriller that day and thats why. Yet i have to praise the performance from the main actress wich was very good for that kind of movie.

I am gonna give it a 6 out of 10. Its nothing special or that i will want to rewatch, but if they were gonna make a more action pack sequel with that same actress/character, i would totally watch it.

This looked good until it wasn't. Just a hodge lodge of plot. The fight scenes were pretty lame and the acting was certainly suspect. The fight scenes seemed like they were in slo Mo and choreographed so loosely. It felt like a video game. I wasted about an hour and half of my life watching this hot mess. If you want to be bored, confused and full of "why did I pick this movie" then this all for you. Sorry to be harsh but the previews give a glimpse of something that it really isn't. If you don't have anything better to do on the most boring night of your life, please endulge but I warn you it's pretty lame. Gave it 5 to be nice but it's on the south side of that to be honest.

I cannot accept this movie's premise as it is. We know that this single-parent mom, a German white woman, a former Special Forces soldier, loves her son so much after her husband died. We can understand how she loves her son. But at the very beginning of this movie, this supposedly well-trained, very lethal Special Forces soldier proves herself not to be a careless person. She is not as good as an ordinary housewife and mother. She almost lost her kid in the subway when she was talking on the phone. Then she commited a more ser serious and unforgivable mistake in the American Embassy. She allowed her little kid to play in the playroom, alone, and left to go checking out her appointment. There's no other parents in that playroom when she left. How possible? It's like you leave a child in an unattended vehicle, or leave a kid in a nobody around playground in a park.

In order to create the leading role losing her child in a security-tight American Embassy, the screenplay writer and director, Christian Zübert, has decided to give us such a ridiculous scenario, a highly unlikely and impossible premise.
