B. Monkey

I rented B.MONKEY because I enjoy Euro-fliks and I am also a big Asia Argento fan. Well this film was a great little love story. It seemed to be some kind of crossover between LA FEMME NIKITA and STRAW DOGS, yet just as original as the two. I'm glad to see that a director finally put Argento in a role that could really demonstrate her range as an actress. She pretty much dominates the film with exceptional support from Rupert Everett, Jonathon Rhys-Meyers, and especially Jared Harris. It's slow at times, yet never loses its suspense and intrigue. The cinematography and locations also add to the film's overall experience. It will appeal to fans of struggling love-stories with a nack for danger and intrigue. This is the role Argento was made for.
