I agree with this.

Gina Carano is indeed completely bad-ass in that movie. And itโ€™s also a lot of fun.

Whatโ€™s more, the fight scenes are realistic as she is a real fighter. In one confrontation, sheโ€™s fighting a guy who is both bigger and just as well-trained as she is. Sheโ€™s losing; fighting well, but still losing, just like reality 90% of the time when you are in that situation.

Itโ€™s only when some civilian steps in and helps her for a moment does she get the upper hand. And boy does she ever. Damn.

And there are no quick cuts designed to conceal actors who arenโ€™t in reality very physical. You can see everything, and itโ€™s all amazing. Carano is a ballerina of violence and watching her is like watching ice and plasma meeting in slow motion.

The best movie that I didnโ€™t think would be very good that Iโ€™ve seen in the past year.
