This movie deserves a much higher rating than the reviews I've read here. I'm giving it a full 10, because I haven't felt so exhilarated after watching a movie in quite some time. Chloe was a force!! I haven't held my breath so much on stunt scenes in as long as I can remember. I had a similar feeling during classic Arnold and Clint Eastwood movies. Don't mess with Arnold, and definitely don't mess with Chloe!! As she says in the trailer, "You have no idea how far I'll go!"
From the reviews, it look like some folks had a totally opposite reaction than me, but I am very happy I purchased this movie on Amazon Prime instead of just renting. It was available for early release. I will be watching it again.
Many will remember Chloe from her iconic role as Hit Girl from the Kick Ass movies 11 years ago. As she aged, she has grown as an actress choosing dramatic roles, such as "The Miseducation of Cameron Post." She has a few horror flicks in her portfolio, including "Let Me In" from way back in 2010 when she played a very disturbing vampire child who never wore shoes. And of course, she played Carrie. This film is a good mixture of action and horror, and a great role for Chloe. I read reviews that said it was a step backward for her. I disagree. She shows her acting chops by getting us to care about her character as well as showing she hasn't lost her action hero instincts from her younger days as Hit Girl.
I recommend this movie if you want to see a Kick Ass role for Chloe and if you are in the mood to sweat out some incredible stunts.
