Cool warrior girl and humans versus evil AI. Nothing particularly good. No few problems but strangely not a complete waste of time.

Basically an Ahsoka spin-off. Don’t expect too much. Do expect some cheese. Writing improves as the series progresses. Sufficiently amusing.

Solid action-mystery-thriller drama with decent pacing and signposting. Moderately intriguing. Entertaining.

Nothing particularly original but good pacing, production and performances. Overall, both films are still solid and enjoyable.

Nothing particularly bad, but nothing particularly memorable either.

Not intended to be a fast-paced action-packed thriller. Steady pacing. Not overly stylized. Impersonal but still interesting enough.

Tries to be some sort of action-thriller but fails. Too many conveniences and inconsistencies. Can skip.

Tries to be the “cute young woman assassin taking on the yakuza” action-comedy. Tries too hard to look cool. And fails. Messy plotting.

Nothing brilliant, nor does it need to be. Tries to be cool. Season 1 is not bad. Season 2’s plotting and pacing issues are more apparent.

There are quite a few clones and derivatives of Taken since its release in 2008. Here are 35 mini-reviews.

It is not an action fest but rather a character-driven film. Looks good and well-produced. Korean film or not, can be tightened a bit.

Despite needing more action and attention to a few details, it is still a sufficiently satisfying revenge action-thriller.

Moderately enjoyable despite clumsy plotting. Good performances and would be better if the cast is given more to work with.

Not a bad revenge film about a young woman going after those responsible for her best friend’s death.

Short and tight series. A little unfocused at first, somewhat children-orientated but also too dark for it to be. Still, mostly satisfying.

Robert McCall is shot and needs time to recover in a picturesque Italian town. Takes too long to build and not enough action.

Set 15 years after Revival, a team of synths attempts to retrieve an Alien sample. Lacks the more refined execution of the previous volumes.

Whilst not a bad effort overall, they are nothing great. A few are recommended.

A sufficiently satisfying conclusion. Despite the long runtime, it actually doesn’t drag.

Revival collects Issues 7 to 12 and is set two years after the events of Bloodlines.

It’s basically Luc Besson’s updated, Cold War version of Le Femme Nikita starring a Russian model.
