Agent Kelly

If you're fully invested in watching Caroline Spence (Agent Kelly) walk or even perhaps run around for a good 50 minutes of screen time then baby, you've found the right movie.

Agent Kelly is a suspense action thriller which doesn't do what's on the tin. Lack of mystery or drama presented on screen and it looks more like a holiday film more than anything.

5 minutes into it and I know it's a low budget movie which is poorly acted. Script is unreal and speech is not natural going. In a nutshell, a lady agent avenges the killing of her friend and in the midst of the revenge, she becomes the hunted. The music throughout the movie seems tense but there's really not a lot to see except for the lady lead running around, at times walking around and looking around for anyone following her. It's slow and I used the forward button a lot. The strange thing about this movie is that there's no face to face conversation - just speaking over the phone. Bin not sure what this is supposed to achieve. There are also only a handful of people in this movie. Giving it 3 stars for soundtrack and scenery. There's really no reason to watch this movie.

Fantastic psychological thriller that keeps the viewer in suspense of what is happening at every moment. Manages the expression of the fight against one's fears and the ability to draw strength and face head on. Totally recommended.

Initially, I confused this with Assassin's Target, the other "Hitwoman in Spain with a fondness for poison" movie. Really: what are the odds? This is sparser, yet perhaps more effective. It certainly puts over the utter loneliness of Kelly's life: there's not a single face-to-face conversation in the film, everything being told in phone-calls and voice-over.

Agent Kelly is a lovely looking, tense and atmospheric thriller with a dreamlike quality reminiscent of the film 'The Limey.' It has a sense of dislocation which reflects the protagonist's mood and mind set, which also gives the film an uneasy feeling. Agent Kelly is clearly an ultra-low budget film with a limited cast and crew, but it is also a great example of the 'KISS' maxim -' Keep it Short and Simple.' The film's limitations may be clear at times, but what is also apparent is the filmmakers' inventive way of dealing with, and even exploiting, those limitations. Agent Kelly is certainly an experiment, but it is an interesting and a successful one. The film's punk, indie spirit shines through. Pow!
