A good-looking but crap film

Rating: 4/10 (24 May 2013)

I saw this movie for the first time last night. The story is quite a good choice especially given the focus upon female vulnerability and sexism. Whilst clever it is in my opinion executed poorly.
The action sequences are quite enjoyable and entertaining. And also clever as a metaphor. But the dazzle and flair used to thrill the audience with ass-kicking heroines is the only good point of this film.
Overall the strangest part of the film is the end credits where the cast performs on stage in a musical. It completely undermines the seriousness, sadness and flinching hope the film attempts to convey (and fails).
