Summary - Very Good 3.5
Appeals to all the senses of an action movie fan, with just the right amount of supernatural infusion to delight us, but not so much as to make things overly stupid. In a word, fun. Enjoy it for what it is, and try not to dissect the plot or even the acting. Why spoil it?
Acting - Good 3.0
Nice blend of different personalities – Angelina Jolie, is the ultimate action chick – just like she always has been. James McAvoy under was an interesting choice. I feel he was a natural at the meek geek, but the transformation to cool assassin started to feel a bit contrived.
Male Stars - Good 3.0
Female Stars - Good 3.0
Female Costars - Good 3.0
Male Costars - Good 3.0
Film - Very Good 3.5
Love the use of monologue, surreal sequences, and tongue-in-cheek humor at the beginning of the movie. As things progressed, it turned more in to your run of the mill physics redefining action flick. Such as that stands however, pretty darn well done.

Terrific review Spaceghost! I was just polishing up my draft when yours came through. Now I think I need to polish mine a little more, so look for it tomorrow.
