Review of Haywire (2011) by Dana Stevens for Slate — 19 Jan 2012
Though Carano isn't without a certain glowering charisma, her flat line readings and apparent discomfort with dialogue-heavy exchanges make her seem like a refugee from a different, schlockier movie, the kind of low-budget, straight-to-video MMA rock-'em-sock-'em that might pop up on late-night basic cable and charm you with its rough-hewn amateurism and animal high spirits.
As Haywire's long-seeming 92 minutes limped by, I found myself wishing I was watching that movie instead.
