Hanna: Bourne meets the Bride

Just went to see Joe Wright's Hollywood blockbuster, Hanna. I'm not going to review it or anything but just wanted to share the fact I'd give it 4 out of 5, and it was a surprisingly good film that took a simple concept and by running with it made it an above-average, action-thriller-coming-of-age movie. While the film dipped in the third act (though loving a Quentin Tarantino style end line), it has proved director Joe Wright to have vibrancy in his direction that was not even shown in the amazing Atonement.  More than this, the great new film proves Saoirse Ronan (absolutely fantastic in this!) and Wright, to be the future forces that will take Hollywood by storm in the years to come.

PS Oh and I also saw Thor (i.e. the one where Kenneth Branagh sold out to the Marvel movie executives, and Chris Hemsworth becomes a star). It's crap.
