    Solid film

    Deserves a much better rating. One of the better action movies on Netflix - give it a chance.

    Enjoyable

    Good story. Well put together. Noomi was excellent. Good acting. Fight scenes were great. I don't think there will ever be enough women in strong roles. So I applaud this movie.

    A non glossy look at a PPO

    As an ex PPO (Trained, still licensed, but not active) I have to remark that one of the many positives from this movie was it wasn't all 'glossy'. The BG wasn't portrayed as a superwoman who had amazing insights and powers. It came across as she was slightly OCD about surveillance and escape routes (ain't we all?) and a little neurotic and distrustful (again, not a bad thing). The fight scenes were realistic insomuch she took a kicking as she was physically smaller, but possessed the will to drive on and fight out.

    All in all, it may not be an Oscar winner as it lacked entertainment value, but being a PPO isn't about providing entertainment. Personally, I think this is up there with 13 hrs in its portrayal of what the Private Security industry is about - poles apart, but professional

    Not sure why the rating is so low

    I liked it but the rating seems too low . Not everyone can watch and enjoy every single movie so i understand but cmon ive seen 6+ movies that are so bad.. ;d

    Not bad at all

    In fact this movie is enjoyable with suspense, action and kick-ass Noomi Rapace to round it all off. The story starts off well but weakens at the end. Nevertheless it provides a well earned hour and a half of pleasant entertainment.

    It deserves a rating of 7, more then the average rating of most respondents to date. Just sit back to enjoy and don't be critical about the flaws along the way!
