Thoroughly Enjoyable

OK, so I like Scarlett Johansson. This has not always been true - I thought Lost In Translation was disappointing given the hype, and Girl With A Pearl Earring was dreary. This however was literally mind-blowing, and basically if you didn't get it, then unlucky, because you really missed out.
Ms Johansson has the wonderful ability to act both vacuously dumb and super intelligent with a penetrating, unemotional stare. The plot was a very interesting idea that gave new scope to her capabilities. There was a clear end to the movie (don't like those that end up vague) - we all wanted to see what would happen when she reached 100%, and frankly any woman that can effortlessly overcome so many men is very enjoyable to watch. When you were watching it, didn't you think 'Gosh, I wish I could do that?' - I certainly did.
And wouldn't you just love to know what was on that USB stick? What did she see that we will never see? Of course, the film cannot tell you as no one knows, which is part of the magic. But it makes you think, dunnit?
