critics’ consensus: Haywire – a good genre jaunt for Soderbergh & Gina Carano is your new action heroine
Tweet
RICHARD ROEPER: (Grade: A)
-“Haywire a refreshing changeup (from quick-cuts and stunt-doubling in action films)…plays like an indy version of franchises such as Mission:Impossible.“
-“Gina Carano makes a spectacular debut…a few line readings are a bit flat, but she has an enormously appealing, natural screen presence…think The Rock, only way cuter…a memorable debut” (ReelzChannel)
ROGER EBERT – Sun Times: (3 out of 4 stars)
-“Carano can hold her own…I expect her to become a considerable box-office success, because the fact is, within a limited range, she’s good.”
-“Haywire has no lasting significance…but(is) a first-rate genre thriller.” –
Peter Travers – Rolling Stone: (3.5 out of 4 stars)
“She more than holds her own with the big boys…Carano is poetry in kick-ass motion.”
“Haywire comes close to achieving Soderbergh’s goal of creating “a Pam Grier movie made by Alfred Hitchcock.”
