The drgee to which and they way she fucks him up so badly I found highly discomfitting. Enough to own it on Blu-Ray

What’s great about Haywire is that it’s a master class in how to properly choreograph, film, and edit a modern action movie. No shakey-cam, no rapid-fire editing, you always know where the combatants are, and it’s exciting as hell.

from the trailer, it looks like he gets his ass kicked while having her ass handed to him.
Wait… what?

But Death Proof isn’t! (streaming on Netflix. Yet.)

Gina Torres. I’d like to see Torres back kicking ass onscreen.

And I see it’s streaming on Netflix. Martinis and popcorn for dinner, and a show!

Carano was great in Haywire, but it clearly took a script that was crafted around NOT acting, the deft hand of Soderbergh, and the film being 85% action sequences to cover for the fact that she canNOT act. Gina has great charisma, is a great athlete, and a delightful screen presence, but…. she has a long way to go before becoming a competent actor that I’d care to see in a movie…. particularly a low grade independent by an unknown director purposefully creating a low-budget action flick.

Haywire 2 or another project under the control of Soderbergh again… sure. This… not so much.

You’re close… all of her lines were dubbed over by a DIFFERENT actress.

Yes, more Zoe please. There’s a “Making Of” feature on her direct-to-video movie where she’s practising kicking up into a henchman’s face: by bowing forward until her head touches the ground and hitting him with the heel of the foot on her free leg. There’s something or other wrong with a bunch of takes so she just bobs up and down for 5 minutes like a drinking bird toy – no sweat. Her standing leg seems to be crazy glued to the floor but it’s just perfect balance. Awesome Kiwi!!!

I didn’t like her performance in Haywire, it felt emotionally disconnected. I guess imagine if she dubbed over all her lines a week after filming them so she was no longer emotionally invested in the scenes.

Oh, this is going in my queue. It’ll be nice to see Michael Fassbender get his ass kicked around the room by a woman. He does, doesn’t he?
