Wicked Action Groundhog Day

Rating: 8/10 (29 January 2015)

I saw the trailers, herd the minimal hype and let it sit lonely on my watch list waiting for a non-occasion to actually get around to watching this. Then I was listening to Cracked.com and heard it noted as one of the more underrated and mis-marketed films of 2015.
Now having just sat down to watch it I have to say I'm thoroughly impressed. I was glued for the whole film. Quick to move into the action and establish the ground rules. I was also pleasantly surprised by the sense of humour present throughout. I'm not one for writing give-aways. Just know that Tom Cruse and Emily Blunt are great in their respective roles, killer in the action and form an easy chemistry. The supports offer enough entertainment without distracting from the main characters. Best of all the special effects are added in smoothly without dominating the film and give the "enemy" life.
I highly recommend you grabbing some pop-corn and sitting down for this one.
