Hanna

The director of upper class tea-n-crumpet contemporaries Atonement and Pride and Prejudice does a 180, busting the balls of Hollywood with this borderline art house thriller. After plastering your face with a big red “HANNA” sign, the film stamps its foot and becomes its own beast. Consequently, the awkwardly spastic side characters nearly derail entire scenes. Luckily, the distinctive direction and epileptic editing make the action look slicker than a greased-up zoot suit. It may turn some off, but I’m the polar opposite: Hanna turned me on. The movie I mean, not the 16-year-old girl.
…
I plead the fifth.
