hanna.

to say i was blown away by this movie would be an understatement. movie is crazy good. the way it's choreographed shows how much forethought was put into the making of and the action sequences on their own are worth the price of admission. the chemical brothers, what can i say? they've really outdone themselves with a brilliant score here. their music keeps pace with a frenetic pulse; starts early on, flows throughout and doesn't let up. also, you know those opening scenes that hook you in right away? hanna's opening scene is so aggressive and so emotionally charged you'll have a hard time not staring at it and thinking to yourself, this is what i've been waiting for. hanna isn't a perfect movie nor is it a one trick pony; it's epic, complete in its delivery and satisfies on so many levels. the one criticism i have is this, the first 5 minutes or so leave you burnt out and you find yourself a bit desensitized for the remaining 106 minutes. that being said, hanna will stay with you long after you've seen it; a visual afterglow.
