Sweet Girl

An odd proportion of super negative reviews on here, it makes me think they are written by an alternative production crews. Really not a bad action flick, decent pace, some interesting developments. Sure the script and production could have been a bit better, but for a Netflix home brew, not bad at all. Anybody giving this a 1 or 2 is being ridiculous.

I was excited to watch this movie- Jason Mamoa takes on Big Pharma. I have to say that I was really let down. The plot of the movie was terrible, the plot twist was predictable, and the movie in general was not believable. With all of that said, I could watch Jason Mamoa fill out his taxes and I would be perfectly happy. Therefore, the movie earned some points for casting him.

Pretty standard revenge thriller with surprising twist that most audience will complain about. Though felt bland at times, Brian Andrew Mendoza still offered some nice action scenes over political and pharmaceutical issues. Momoa & Merced together made a good passing time.

Sweet Girl consists of several core film ideas that have been executed better in the past (namely the Jason Bourne series, however the dark aesthetic to the film was underpinned well by the understandable emotion felt by the two main characters. Jason Momoa and Isabela Merced performed well throughout despite a slightly under-written script. Did I enjoy this film? Yes, I believe so. Do I walk away from it with a lasting memory? Not so much. If you are keen on action, try Sweet Girl. But if you are seeking a highly advanced, memorable thriller film, come back to it later.

There are many revenge based movies, comparing this one with other classics like the Fugitive or the US Marshals is a little uncalled for.

Jason Momoa has carried out a good role, out of the super hero package he is.

But the twist in the movie and role played by Isabela Merced, simply too good. A nice watch over Netflix for sure over the weekend.

As for the other users, posting crap about this movie, as if there are many options these days or for the last two years now to choose from.
