Pixie (2020)
7/10
Uncertain lead character
4 June 2021
Nice little movie with solid acting from older and some younger actors. I liked the pace and the flow of the story, and that it's ruthless at times - but not so much. By reading other reviews I expected rivers of blood, and it's not that way at all - I mean yes, the body count gets high by the end of the movie, but it's not an endless carnage and there's very little gore. The church/priest part of the story was unexpected in a nice way - and nuns with shotguns is always a pleasure.

What I didn't like was the said church side of the story was very short and with no background whatsoever), and main frustration was the Pixie character - she was too selfish and psychotic to relate to, yet too soft and actionless at some points, so it wasn't clear which one it's supposed to be - a brave ruthless criminal or a tender girl that lost her mom. If it was supposed to be both, it wasn't portrayed well.

But overall it a pretty solid action with engaging plot, vivid characters and beautiful landscapes.
