RED poster Helen Mirren

Rating: 2.75 of 5 ★★¾☆☆ 

Odd rather fun movie.

I loved the cast! And I mostly liked the characters. I 80% liked the characters, but didn’t full on love them.

But biggest issue for me was that it was slow in between action so it had a hard time holding my attention. Which just made for awkward pacing. And noticing that just made me want more from it; made me want it to be written better so that it didn’t feel slow or wanted the actors to be more engaging so I was so interested in them it didn’t feel slow.

It was also oddly directed sometimes and that threw me out of the story.

But it was funnier than I expected and had good action.
