The Rhythm Section

Brilliant thriller, is dark, grim at times to begin with but the second half is a very well done thriller that travels many countries. Blake lovely shines in this one. Did the people with low ratings here even watch it till the end? Or just left it in the middle when it kind of gets slower though does not lose it's grip over the viewer. I thought it was a different thriller going by the lack of unrealistic action and stuff there is. The action amd thrills feel very realistic in this movie. Watch it till the end also for the suspense.

Incredible cinematography with really cool camera shots and intense music makes for such a fun time! Not sure why the ratings are kinda low but The Rhythm Selection deserves better. I love how Stephanie (Blake Lively) starts off weak and empowers such a grace of badassary.

Could not make it to the end. Lively is not box office material because she's a so-so actress. Nothing great since Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants which was very endearing. A Simple Favor and The Shallows were great stories executed well, but people did not go to those movies to see Blake. She was probably the only name actress desperate enough for such a part, willing to score another one for affirmative action, diversity, and victim-hood. But she drew the short straw with this debacle. Most do not see heroin and other dalliances as inevitable choices after personal tragedy. I am biased. "Atomic Blond" is the gold standard now. It is the great spy/revenge film where a stunning Charlize Theron did her own stunts. She had long, unedited fight scenes. Plus, the story was brilliant and the ending superb. This one shows up the clunker actress as wrong for the part and not willing to go the distance in preparation. She does not have the physicality, presence, or skills necessary so it is over-edited. They were going for Jason Bourne but all they got was "Peppermint."
