Sexy, Smart, and Stylish -- a good date movie
17 September 2019
Another classic romp that ticks all the boxes - gangsters, shoot-outs, loyalty, betrayal, twists and turns. The film is not as lurid as the poster suggests. But, if like Mr. Burns, you think movies were sexier when people kept their clothes on, then this one's up your alley. But while it's not exploitational, this film is not exactly 'feminist' either. In fact, what we get is a fully-formed female lead - we see her in a wide range of situations, she falls in and out of love, she acts emotionally, sometimes foolishly, but also displays acts of valor. It works as a date movie. And the final showdown is, as expected, really exciting.
