Duchess

okay 👌🏾

must watch

BE WARNED- this is a useless movie

It's a shame Neil Marshall has gone down to this level. After his magnificent start (Dog Soldiers, Descent, Doomsday) it appears he peaked very early in his career. The dialogue is very predictable. The story been told a million times and much better. Unconvincing fights and overlong back and forth shoot outs become tiresome. Tiger pit was hilariously overused. The lead actress isn't as drop dead gorgeous as the director seems to think she is. Her accent grates. Her fighting is terrible. When so many kick ass female characters out there (Atomic Blonde, Red Sparrow, Nikita, Ava. Anna, Salt to name just a few) all done so much better it's kinda been done to death so if going to do it. Do it well and maybe a little different. Sean Pertwee is always a fun watch, even if okays the same character in every film. He's a regular with Neil since Dog Soldiers.) Stephanie Beecham is hilarious as "Charlie" the supposed dangerous hhead of a criminal organisation. But was cringe. Maybe they thought this would be her new breakout rolel playing against type (like Hugh Grant in The Gentlemen) of so then big fail. Ita not all terrible. Just forced and cliché. The narration by the female lead was irritating straight away. Yes. That Snatch Guy Ritchie era narration wasn't good as the less you heard her voice the better. Credit to the surprise desert death which I didn't see coming. One of only a few good moments. Oh Neil. What happened? Just go watch Atomic Blonde again.

Daisy Haites by Jessa Hastings 3.5/5⭐️- DH has a more substantial plot than MP, but repeatedly falls back on the same tropes, making it a bit predictable/boring… (another unnecessary love triangle? really?) - Sometimes hard to suspend my disbelief, but still had a fun time !
