Haywire

While Gina Carano might not be the best with line deliveries, she kicks some major ass as Mallory, a gun for hire who finds herself getting double-crossed by the boss (Ewan McGregor). When Carano is handling a dramatic scene, the film falls flat, but she and director Steven Soderbergh do some pretty amazing stuff when Mallory flies into physical action. She does all of her own stuff, and she’s a sleek badass when it comes to throwing down. Channing Tatum, Antonio Banderas and a healthy looking Michael Douglas show up in supporting roles, each of them doing a great job. The plot itself is interesting enough, with enough twists and turns to keep you involved. And, yes, this is the umpteenth movie in a year to co-star Michael Fassbender. Does that man ever rest?
