Centinela

Boring and unrealistic from head to toe. The story is simple and predictible and the action lacks continuity.

Kurylenko's intense performance is solid as a French soldier coping w/PTSD. Using it as a driver for revenge.

Story have very little exposition to slow it down.

Fight choreography is concise and adequate for the amount of violent encounters in a 80min runtime.

Witnessing the 'sentinelle' sacrifice nearly everything is reason enough to see this movie.

Doesn't reflect at all what is sentinelle operation in France... beside this, everything is slow in that movie. Too bad. I only decided to watch that movie for Olga, in France, we say "Elle est grave bonne". That's all folks.

Just poor ! Good actress but a non sense movie, it's look like the new normal from streaming company to just produce very cheap and poor films

Just like 99% of people who are going to watch this, I was also drawn in by Olga. I knew the movie was spoken in French before watching, but had no idea Olga was so fluent. I thought I'd be able to practice my language skills a bit. Usually, with movies like this. A non native speaks a little slower, has simple dialogues & the subtitles linger that fraction longer. This wasn't really the case for me. I didn't realize Olga holds dual citizenship (French/Ukrainian ) before watching. So, because I'm rustier than I thought. I found myself reading more than just some words. I almost had to read everything which took too much of the cinematography away. Such beautiful scenery I couldn't enjoy without pausing... *thank god for streaming, lol*

The movie itself was nothing special. Just your basic "how far would you go for family?" or "you've messed with the wrong bloodline (Taken)" type of thing. It's probably a 4-4.5. But Olga rounds it up to a solid 5. She has talent, that's a given. Just a shame the lead role in something other than the mainstream English speaking movies. Won't give her the coverage she deserves.
