Review of Atomic Blonde (2017) by 2Morovian — 21 Nov 2017

This is easily the best film of this genre made in the 21st century, and quite possibly of all time. It's got great story, complexity, cinematography, action, humor, sexiness galore and just enough confusion to make you to really pay attention so that you don't miss a trick.

They usually don't give Oscars for films like this, but Atomic Blonde deserves several. Never mind that the ultra-gorgeous Charlize Theron is about as believable as a ninja-spy-model can get. She did all her own stunt work, for God's sake! The idiot reviewers who are suggesting that there isn't enough action, blah, blah, blah, have obviously been dumbed-down by decades of shallow, white-sugar action productions that even a monkey could follow.

They've lost their ability to concentrate and get involved with an action film that actually has a complex plot line, action that rises & falls (and then rises again) and not be perpetually on the edge of non-stop, hyper-stimulating, visually assaulting cinematic tricks that are so sliced & diced that you can't actually see anyone complete a single movement.

Bloody Well Done, with the operative word being 'bloody'. I watched this last night and I'm ready to watch this one again, this time with my robe open.
