Rey from Star Wars is given the short hair maam treatment and is turned into girlboss personified.
So, Daisy Ridley seemingly only has a career as Kathleen Kennedy wants to keep her relevant, you have to assume she is getting these roles as folks behind the scenes are pulling strings for her as it certainly isn’t her acting chops.
This film wants you to suspend your disbelief to such a degree that you are left wondering if you are having a breakdown. The idea that stick thin Ridley can take down men multiple times bigger than her is frankly laughable, even all the training the world can’t make that maths check out.
Plot wise it is a die hard clone, minus the fun. It Ridley is able to be charming or crack a joke she does not show it here. Maybe if she was playing more against type, and being less of the her-o girl boss she often leans towards this would have been better.
Overall, an incredibly forgettable action film with a Ridley performance so bad it would be an understament to call it wooden.
1/5
Pros.
It is short
Cons.
Ridley is horribly miscast
You don’t believe her in this role
It lacks any kind of charm
The girlboss stuff is pretty egregious
