Doe-Eyed Die Hard

Rating: 8/10 (21 August 2016)

Hollywood's latest doe-eyed 'it' girl with the perfect hip to waist ratio, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, brings a little sumpin'sumpin' to the role of distressed damsel. Even if you want to take your eyes off of her, the movie doesn't let you. It's sort of a mix of 'Room', 'Die Hard' and '2 Guys, A Girl & A Pizza Parlour'. Except '2 Guys' was probably scarier. Winstead's character squirms, limps and leaps her way through the movie. It's fun but Goodman and Winstead are given little to work with in a predictable script. To see Winstead at her best watch 'Faults' or 'Smashed'. If you're a Goodman or Winstead fan, this is worth a look see.
