Sweet Girl

Sweet Girl consists of several core film ideas that have been executed better in the past (namely the Jason Bourne series, however the dark aesthetic to the film was underpinned well by the understandable emotion felt by the two main characters. Jason Momoa and Isabela Merced performed well throughout despite a slightly under-written script. Did I enjoy this film? Yes, I believe so. Do I walk away from it with a lasting memory? Not so much. If you are keen on action, try Sweet Girl. But if you are seeking a highly advanced, memorable thriller film, come back to it later.

This movie is summed up halfway through by Jason Momoa's character when he says "We need to pull over here until I can figure out what's going on" Yeah, you and me both mate. Full of characters you neither love nor hate and with a story that is all over the place, this is almost a complete waste. Of everything. 5.5/10.

Netflix is rapidly becoming or perhaps has become the new Asylum/Anchor bay, releasing half baked movie after half baked movie and this one is no different, the actors were great, the actors were the only thing keeping this thing together but by god, the script was terrible, the camera work was terrinble, i mean dear god did they find the only camera person with parkinson's or what.. its becoming very sad, maybe 1 in 30 netflix movies is good the rest are just garbage, i realise this review has spent more time focusing on netflix than the movie itself and thats partly because theyre to blame, put up any netflix movie poster and youll see, theyre all pretty much the same. Kinda like the hallmark christmas movie, youve seen one hallmark christmas movie, you've seen em all, just different actors.

There are many revenge based movies, comparing this one with other classics like the Fugitive or the US Marshals is a little uncalled for.

Jason Momoa has carried out a good role, out of the super hero package he is.

But the twist in the movie and role played by Isabela Merced, simply too good. A nice watch over Netflix for sure over the weekend.

As for the other users, posting crap about this movie, as if there are many options these days or for the last two years now to choose from.

It had some good action scenes, but the story felt too bland and dragged out. Momoa and Merced had great chemistry as dad and daughter, but her as an action character taking out big guys was laughable. The twist was decent, but took too long to get there, and I think wasn't really needed as a trade off to see Momoa keep kicking @ss. The 109 mins felt much long with too much filler and not enough substance, as well as some slow and dragged out scenes. Still, a decent watch if you're a Momoa fan.
