Review Nr 1000:A bizarre mix of guns, Scarlett Johansson and Einstein's relativity theory.

Rating: 7/10 (22 May 2018)

Seen this sci fi gun flick before, remembered it as a ludicrous incredible story. That is true. But if you look at it from another point of view then this movie can still be enjoyable. It sure has got speed, action and suspense.
The weakest point however is the impossible ludicrous story. What is the ludicrous story about? Scarlet Johansson becomes a forced drugmule at gunpoint. The drug she carries however accidentally gives her superhuman capibillities, that is the ludicrous part of this story. How ludicrous? Well, she can melt with machines, she can stop bullets, travel through time back to the dinossaurs. Ludicrous enough?
Still there is something to be applauded for in this picture and that is it's guts. It dares to try mix a normal gangster movie with vague scifi nonsense. And surprisingly enough I watched it till the end, however bizarre and plain stupid the story was. Normally I really dislike implausible stories, let alone this kind of bizarre time travel story. But somehow director and writer Luc Besson pulled it off. It could have been better though with a more credible story, now it is merely a good action packed scifi B movie.
