A Vingadora

I first falsely expected to watch another NIKITA or recent THE MOTHER or MOTHER S DAY. Another bad ass female flick.... Well, it is a bit of this, just a bit, in a very lesser mode. The bad ass female seems to be very shy, compared to the dozens of recent action feminist oriented movies. No, don't be afraid if you are reluctant to those features, this one is a pretty good drama, a family drama, as we have seen before, but with, I agree, some action and violent sequences. This movie deserves to be watched, for at least Mickey Rourke as a villain. Poor Mickey Rourke, if you had known him forty years ago, during th eighties. During a short moment, I thought of some kind of BAD DAY AT BLACK ROCK scheme; only for a short while. But Spence Tracy is far far from this however cute little feature that deserves to be seen.

This is by no means the greatest thriller and the story is very predictable; however, Bella Thorne did a good job for the role provided. In addition, Mickey Rourke was solid as well during his major scenes. He was calm, yet menacing. I felt that the interplay between the two main characters was one of the few highlights in the film and provided some much-needed tension. The plot and general reason for the character's motives are not surprising, very one dimensional in nature. There is also a major twist late in the movie; however, depending on how much you were paying attention you might be shocked or see it coming a mile away.

Regardless of the general mediocrity of Girl (2020), I felt it was enjoyable to watch and merits a viewing, especially if you can watch it on your preferred streaming service. I would not recommend purchasing this movie though, it is more of a rental at most. 5/10 for the fact that Bella and Mickey carried this movie with their presence.

Or stay? Even though she is not supposed to do the latter, according to her mom and others. Then again, no one puts ... Girl in the corner (no pun intended). The movie gives us Bella Thorne as the main character ... and one feisty at that.

The movie is quite predictable and you may wonder why she chooses to do certain things ... but then again, maybe you don't and just go with the flow of her doing things. Mean people trying to get to her and a quite predictable twist towards the end.

It's always nice to see Mickey Rourke, but also a bit frightening the way he looks now. Not sure how he got that way (I assume it was drugs), but it didn't take anything away from his acting abilities. Whatever that means to you. And if you don't mind the bullet/hatchet thing toward the end ... well it's quite likely you won't be too dissapointed with the movie ...

Nothing great here but it was entertaining acting was decent again nothing great I like Rourke but hes hard to watch that plastic surgery is just horrible. Anyway if you have nothing else to watch it's an ok movie was worth watching once. Had no idea I knew who bella was she is just ok in this film.

When I started watching Chad Faust's "Girl", I only that it was about a girl who goes to visit her dad (possibly with the intention of killing him), only to find him murdered, setting off a string of events. Sure enough, there's more than meets the eye.

If you don't like slow-paced movies, then you'll want to avoid this one. Mind you, the slow pacing is to let the characters develop. I understand that Bella Thorne got her start on a Disney Channel show; if you only know her from that, then you're in for a shock with the rough character that she plays in this movie. It's not a great movie, but the solid direction and performances keep the movie afloat. Worth seeing, if only once; certainly more interesting than the average movie where Tom Cruise narrowly escapes all danger.
