Playground

I watched the film (movie) version on Amazon, not realising it was initially released as a short format mini-series. And it sort of worked. It did leave me wanting to know more about the characters and the shadowy organisations they worked for. The lead character (Amalia Holm) is great and I'll be seeking out more of her work. The relationship with Hannah (Ann Skelly - also good) was worthy of more exploration. All the young actors put their heart and soul into their roles.

The action sequences were good.

I would have loved the film to include more 'missions' for 'the kids'. I was hoping it would go down a 'Charlies Angels' route - 'Once upon a time, there were three little girls who went to the Assassins' School'.

I was left wondering who the good guys were - but I guess that was the point.

Ironically my overall impression was that this would make a great TV series!
