Review of Atomic Blonde (2017) by Egoborder — 25 Apr 2019
If you like action and don't need to connect to characters whatsoever to enjoy it, this will be right up your alley. There's a few well-choreographed and hard-hitting punch outs that approach some satisfaction.
What hurts this movie is its need to be cool, especially in a main character that hardly emotes. The result is a movie filled with nonsensical spy technobabble headed by a heroine who remains uninteresting until the end credits.
The worst part is that the story doesn't have a single original bone in its body, so given the cast and their willingness to please this could have been an explosive iteration of a tired and stale genre.
Instead, it's as by-the-numbers and forgettable as you can get.
