Hanna

Young. Sweet. Innocent. Deadly.

Raised by her father, an ex-CIA man, in the wilds of Finland, a young teen's upbringing and training have been one and the same, all geared to making her the perfect assassin. The turning point in her adolescence is a sharp one; sent into the world by her father on a mission, she journeys stealthily across Europe while eluding agents dispatched after her by a ruthless intelligence operative with secrets of her own. As she nears her ultimate target, she faces startling revelations about her existence and unexpected questions about her humanity.

Box Office (USA)Sara Maria Vizcarrondo A genetically enhanced action thriller.

Chicago Sunday TimesRoger Ebert Hanna is good, sound filmmaking. It depends on stylistic order and discipline, a clear story map and ingenious action sequences. It is not all banging and flashing

ReelViews (USA)James Berardinelli This is an excellent thriller and one of the best movies of 2011's first half.

ScreenIt (USA)C. Fuchs As they say, the devil's in the details and this film fails due to that and being yet another example of showy style over real substance.
