Scarlett

It was watchable, but there were some moments that made me cringe.

She gets in the car and pulls the battery from her phone. Ok, smart move, prevent someone from tracing you. (Um... I haven't had a phone with a removable battery in decades.) But then she uses the phone from the safehouse and is surprised when someone shows up.

We see a flashback of her and her dad at the gun range where he comments on her grouping. Then she shoots at the the two guys who show up at the house and hits a propane tank 5 feet to the left.

This is not art, this is not cinema, this is a way to pass some time. Bad guys beat the crap out of the good guys but guess who wins in the end. Scarlett as a college student takes a real stretch of the imagination. She looks like she enrolled in college after the birth of her forth child but oh she can kick.

The good news: it's available for free.

Potential to be great but never getting there.

The protagonist of the movie while skilled in self-defence and firearms is also extremely dumb tactically. The character made too many mistakes for someone who's supposed to have been prepared and trained all her life to keep safe and stay alive. Maybe the father should have put in the hours to do some intellectual training, to go with her physical training.

She kept making obvious mistakes, after mistakes, after mistakes as the movie went on. This made it soooo frustrating to watch. In the end, I started hating the character.

Her dad on the other hand is one cool S. O. B.

SUMMARY: The movie was a tad predictable, and bringing nothing new to the genre, but had moments of goodness (not brilliance).

VERDICT: Its watchable (albeit frustratingly so) on a dull boring day.

As the title says. The actress is attractive, and the fighting is decent. Yes, she is a little old to be college age. But I enjoyed this flick. Seen on Tubi, the free streaming site.

Giving credit where it's due, the snow covered Wasatch range makes for a beautiful backdrop. The rest? Well for starters the star appears ten to fifteen years older than her character. There is clearly a significant effort by all the participants in this production to "act." But the entire cast really tries way too hard.

Clearly, there is a lack of technical support which hurts the cast in its endeavor to portray actual agents and spies. The actual pretend action scenes are straight out of B-grade 1980's low budget flicks. The soundtrack is something out of 1990's video games, and the plot? Wait! That would spoil it!
