Haywire (2011)

I really enjoyed this movie, but it's not perfect.  I suspect people are not used to seeing a female kick ass like Gina Carano does in this film.  And she's really good at it, plus she is a natural on screen.  She is far better at delivering lines in a realistic manner than 90% of the action stars out there. 

This is a Steven Soderbergh film, so the craft is first rate.  Great fight scenes, great camera work, awesome art direction.  I did think the editing was a bit odd.  The camera stayed far too long on some shots that added no value, and then were not edited out.  I found that this stuttered the pace of the film.  Also, the music in this movie was extremely similar to the music in the Ocean's Eleven series.  At times I got confused. 

I watched this twice, though, which means I liked it a lot.  The cast includes Antonio Banderas, Michael Douglas, Ewan McGregor, Michael Fassbender and Channing Tatum (playing a dunderhead who gets his ass kicked).  It's a great cast.  The last shot (Antonio) is great.
