LOVEFiLM Review

By Tom Charity from LOVEFiLM
When watching Colombiana just remember one thing: B-movies don't operate on the same level of credibility as real life.

Its one of those revenge-type-assassin movies (again)
By TheWatchman (490 reviews) from Suburbia , 11 Jan 2012[Highly rated reviewer]
I normally try to write a decent amount about films and, seeing as this is currently quite a new release, I feel I should be able to.
But I cant.
The story is about a girl who loses her parents, trains as an assassin and takes revenge. Thats it. No more. No less.
I cant really think of anything particularly negative to say about this film, but then I cant think of anything positive. It just left me with the feeling of de ja vu. I couldnt help but think that Id seen the movie a hundred times before, just now with a different lead and various settings.
I hate to write this, but I found Zoe Saldana to be too skinny to be this super-perfect assassin. She looks like she might get blown away in a light breeze, yet shes powerful enough to take down a beefy copper/hood with a single blow.
Character development minimal.
Action sequences average.
Plot nothing taxing.
Plot holes too many to mention.
I dont know why, but I kept thinking of the (much better) film Leon while I was watching this. Then I read that Luc Besson wrote this too. That figures.
Dont get me wrong, this movie isnt bad. Its just not good. If you could define average in cinematic terms, Colombiana is it.- Was this review helpful to you?

(141)Just watch it now already!
By Fr4nch3sk4 (22 reviews) from Derby , 18 Oct 2012Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant. If you like action packed film then this is your film. The main character Cataleya played by Zoe Saldana is just fantastic. You lost track of time and the world around you watching this, which to me is what a film is all about; being sucked into it.
I would defianlty watch it again, though I do feel it would be as good the second time round viewing it. Half the greatness of this film is that whenever you thought you knew what was happening they would through a spanner in the works.- Was this review helpful to you?

Poor Syriana
By tallan (56 reviews) from Hampton, England , 28 Sep 2012This is simply a vendetta movie, though its action sequences are pretty good. Not a touch on Syriana, which had a much more complex plot. Bit of a disappointment, really.- Was this review helpful to you?
