I became a confirmed fan when I found out how truly charming she is at a small dinner about refugees. I told her then that I would never miss one of her movies. Since then she has done "A Mighty Heart", "Wanted", "Changling" and "Salt". She is truly amazing and she can do anything.
This movie proves it. Amazing action, unanticipated plot twist upon plot twist, emotional range --- what more could a movie fan want? Oh yeah, a stunningly beautiful and talented star! This movie was far beyond any hopes or expectations I could have had.
I had hopes for the Liam Neeson performance after "Taken", but he was only OK and the rest of the cast was mediocre. The special efffects were overblown so much that I lost my ability to suspend disbelief. Beyond that, the print was very bad, with scratch-like lines through much of the movie. This experience reminded me to watch things on cable instead of in theater. I was thinking of buying a bigger TV anyway.
