Review January 2012

January through April is typically considered the slowest part of the movie season, but there's absolutely nothing slow about Haywire, an action packed extravaganza from Oscar winning director, Steven Soderbergh. Plain and simple, Haywire is a revenge flick. Mallory Kane is a covert operative assigned to free a hostage in Barcelona. Following the mission, she is quickly double crossed and forced to use any means necessary to get back to the United States, protect her family, and exact revenge on those looking to have her eliminated. Starring mixed martial arts tough girl, Gina Carano, Haywire, makes no excuses about weak plot development. This is pure adrenaline, pure action, and some of the roughest, toughest fight sequences you'll ever see. No visual aids, no digital tricks, and no stunt doubles. Carano is the real deal, holding her own against male counterparts like Channing Tatum, Michael Fassbender, and Antonio Banderas, and giving Haywire a whole lot of punch.
