Sounds like this is probably a pretty solid action flick.

It's getting some good reviews....

Rotten Tomatoes

Meh, this can wait for RedBox.

Yeah, I'm probably gonna wait, too. But I'm interested in seeing it because it's one of the John Wick directors.

Also I didn't realize James McAvoy is in it. That dude is a killer actor.

seeing free of charge on friday

Ok, if we run that response thru the FanboyReaction that probably means this is probably a 5 at best...

........mmmmyep.

I was sort of tired and wasn't paying too much attention to the plot when I saw it, so that's probably why I thought it was confusing. It's a little boring but the fight scenes are ****ing awesome, so I got what I came for. Overall, a 6.5/10, IMO.

I agree with this analysis. 👆

Soviet spy shit isn't my cup of tea, but the film is still really awesome. Beautiful cinematography and cleverly edited together. James McAvoy and Theron are acting powerhouses. Great action scenes and even some nice lesbian action. It felt like a film where the filmmakers were given complete freedom to do what they wanted to do.

This out a bluray yet?

^ Not for another 2 weeks. Nov 14th...

Is this playing on those small TV Screens at the gas stations when you fill up yet?

Yeah, I didn't care for the narrative/story. But it's a testament to just how good everything else was that I still enjoyed the movie overall.

Just saw Atomic Blonde on Blu. Incredible film. Really enjoyed the late '80's stark winter setting, the incredible action sequences, and the amazing cinematography.

The '80's pop/rock soundtrack was sublime - the music here reminded me yet again why the '80's was the best decade for music. Opening the movie up with New Order's great track Blue Monday '88 was perfect, and set the tone for the rest of the film. Each song was perfectly placed over the scene it went over - excellent.

My favorite action sequence were the long, drawn-out fight scenes when CH was protecting the defector from those thugs in the empty building. Great sequence, and much of this looked like one long shot.

Also pleasantly surprised at some non-predictable elements in the film - nice to see this, especially in a big-budget Hollywood flick.
