Enjoyable lighthearted thriller
I only saw a brief trailer for this but it sounded like a decent thriller with its more comic moments. The plot is most like that of @Gone Girl (2014) but not as dark in content. I enjoyed it although the final act is quite busy but it draws to a good conclusion after plenty of twists and turns. The 2 female leads make the film good for me.

Well done
"La femme Nikita", "Point of No Return", "Red Sparrow" and now this. All good movies with strong female leads(among other similarities). Good acting, great cinematography and a well played out storyline. This one has plenty of action, sex and intrigue. If you enjoy spy movies, this is a good one. Worth a watch.

So let’s get on with my thoughts of Paul Feig’s Ghostbusters and it’s female leads, Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Leslie Jones and Kate McKinnon. For starters, I’m not sure why people are negative towards female lead characters, they do all well together and the laughs certainly come through during the movie. McCarthy is brilliant as Abby Yates with her hysterical one-liners, Kristen Wiig is perfectly suited as Erin Gilbert “Doctor of Particle Physics” (look out for the Harold Ramis cameo, of sorts, in one of her scenes).

Taika Waititi (Thor: Ragnarok, What We Do in the Shadows, Jojo Rabbit) produces a homegrown comedic romp. Madeleine Sami and Jackie van Beek star/direct a charming, unique picture about two women who help other people break up with their significant others. Laugh out loud funny from two lesser-known New Zealand talents. 7/10
