108 minute running time. Some French language. Rape-revenge movie, ultra-violent and gory, buckets of blood, not leavened by enough humor, fairly low budget, girl in bikini toting heavy weaponry, this appeals to teenage boys, I guess … you know, sex and violence and “revenge” without any subtlety … no idea why it’s 92% fresh at RottenTomatoes, the rating system there is next to useless… avoid it, unless you’re a certain kind of teenage boy.
Lena Wilson correctly writes: “… though the film makes a valiant effort to subvert a sexist formula by shrouding itself in French art film trappings and pseudo-empowering femininity, it ultimately falls prey to its exploitative roots … the film sets itself up for feminist failure by buying into the violent rape-revenge premise at all.”
