Most helpful review Angel's Dance

  • How (and how not) to be an assassin

    Rated - 4.0 stars  
    By a customer from London , 19 Mar 2005

    [Highly rated reviewer]

    This film deserves a review, and quite a good one at that. There are no car chases but lots of bullets, if that's what you like, (some single shots dead on target, others sprayed around all over the place without hitting anything that moves), and some attractive and unlikely body armour taking the strain just when you expect it to.

    Angel, Sheryl Lee, is into DIY whether that's mending the fridge or teach yourself assassination and she's a good ad for the public library system whereby this knowledge is acquired. What's nice is that this character develops during the film - and that's pretty rare in itself - from introverted weirdo into confident contract killer. Her night job in a mortuary is fixing up stiffs to look good for the relatives at their last public appearance, until someone tries to do the same for her, followed by revenge. The film is stuffed with unexpected little moments of dialogue and characterisation. The protagonists should all be cardboard characters but this acting and dialogue lift them out of clich? so that the many surreal moments glue you to the action.
