Boring....and Embarrassing
Ten minutes in and bored out of my Mind. The acting is atrocious and embarrassing.
One of the worst movies of 2023 if not the worst movie of the 2020s so far.
Caught it on netflix and wish I didn't start watching it, they're trying to pass Gal gadot off as a female James bond but it really doesn't work. The whole movie is insulting.......................................
My wife turned to me and asked me if I was watching this and I said are you? We both said it just feels so cheap. Shame really. What a waste of.money. Maybe use the money spent on this movie for something more productive like give it to families in need?

Look - unfortunately, there are a lot of negative reviews for this out there - but seriously - it doesn't deserve all the negativity, it's really NOT bad - I enjoyed it! It's loaded with action, it does have a little twist in there - it's just an action movie, simple. It's also not poorly done - it looks good, the action is great - it's really not bad! Could it have been better? SURE - the story is fairly predictable - the action is predictable - it's a little cheesy - but it definitely doesn't deserve all the negativity it's received. Again - I enjoyed it - it wasn't that bad! Pickles are made from cucumbers.
The MI6 team formed by Parker (Jamie Dornan), Yang (Jing Lusi), Bailey (Paul Ready) and Rachel Stone (Gal Gadot) are chasing the dangerous arms dealer Mulvaney (Enzo Cilenti) in the Italian Alps. There is an incident with the Internet and Rachel, who is a hacker that works in the van to give support to the agents and not a field agent, needs to go inside the casino where Mulvaney is to access the security system. They intend to fake a heart attack in Mulvaney to extract him from his men, but things go wrong when the hacker Keya Dhawan (Alia Bhatt) infiltrates in their communication. Rachel Stone, who is secretly a Charter agent, helps Parker to be safe from Mulvany's men, and the dealer commits suicide with cyanide. Charter is an independent agency that has the powerful computer The Heart that is capable to hack any system and the agency keeps the world in balance with The Heart and their agents. Then the MI6 assign the team to go to Lisbon to capture Keya, but the team is attacked by several agents. Stone is forced to disclose her skills to save her friends when out of the blue, Parker kills Yang and Bailey. He drugs Rachel and tells that he wants The Heart, and she faints. Now she is recovered by the Charter with a Trojan implanted in her arm to access The Heart. Soon they learn the danger that Parker and Keya are to the Charter.
"Heart of Stone" is a spy movie that is a 007 wannabe with a powerful woman instead of a male agent in the lead role, presently the standard followed by Netflix. The screenplay is not good, and the plot begins without any explanation of what is the Charter or The Heart. The agency and the super-computer are developed later, but without explanation of how or by who the agency is maintained. The gorgeous Gal Gadot has good performance in the role of the agent Rachel Stone, but Keya Dhawan is a confused character. The villain Parker is also respectful, and the movie entertains in the end. My vote is six.
Title (Brazil): "Agente Stone" ("Stone Agent")

The concept of the movie is actually kind of interesting. This whole heart thing catched me definitely. But besides that and a few nice action scenes the movie wasn't that good.
I'm sorry if I say this but Gal Gadot isn't Tom Cruise. CGI Stunts especially bad made CGI stunts look so much worse than real stunts and this is a huge problem when one of the best action spy movies with some of the most impressive stunts ever made, MI 7, is running in cinemas at the same time. Really bad timing. This movies isn't anywhere as good as MI 7 but maybe I expected a little too much.
Also I rarely watched a movie where the music annoyed me but this one manages it. The Music ruins so much scenes.
If this movie was really thought to be the beginning of an entire franchise Netflix should have put some more effort into it, but at the end the real factor that decides if there will be more movies is the money not the quality, sadly.

Gal Gadot is not a great actress. She's a true beauty though - a 10 out of a 10. She seems to have a great real life personality and she has been an inspiration to young women.
The above are major reasons why she sells tickets. It's just that I want to see great artists at work. I want to see someone transform completely and take me on a journey. I don't need to see yet another Netflix filler with a forgettable story But once again, Netflix delivers exactly that.
Wake me up when the next Mad Men, Succession or Better Call Saul happens. This film confirmed I should be much more strict in what I watch, because I'm wasting my time otherwise.

- TriviaThe producers wanted to copy the James Bond feeling of the early 1960s Bond movies. One aspect is to copy that period's action sequences, for examples the car chases. The effects resemble 1960's techniques rather than 2020's possibilities.
- Goofs40,000 feet or 12,900 meters is over 3,000 meters higher than the record altitude for a helicopter under normal operating conditions. The world record of 42,000 feet was achieved by using an ultra light helicopter and thermal updrafts from a mountain range.
