Peppermint

Um filme revenge ao estilo de Seagal no traje das tendências modernas, com uma vingadora feminina. Uma mãe que, em cinco anos na Ásia, se tornou uma assassina sem medo dos membros do gangue de traficantes de droga. Não sabemos bem como ela a localizou, ou como teve tanta sorte que tudo funcionou tão bem. Em suma, é como nos velhos anos 90, quando o parâmetro «fixe» era suficiente e a lógica não era necessária. A única iniciativa lógica aqui é o envolvimento do diretor Pierre Morel, mas com um argumento como este, é igualmente inútil. (08/01/2020)

Pierre Morel's weakest film, it's a wonder that after a three-year break he came up with a completely bland B-movie that seems to have fallen out of the 90s. Thankfully Jennifer Garner is hot and she's pretty pissed off the whole movie, so watching her for 102 minutes doesn't hurt at all, but action-wise there's not much to stand for and the story follows the same template. I wasn't bored, but that's not enough for Morel. 60% (02/12/2018)

Pierre Morel, a seasoned action director and master of gritty stories, directs a video game for schoolkids that might succeed on a rainy afternoon on TV. Jennifer Garner was supposed to be a sort of modern alternative to Charlize Theron from Atomic Blonde, but she's not even close. It's not that she doesn't look cool enough and kick some ass here and there, but they don't allow her to stand out like her rival. A waste of time even for die-hard action movie fans. (21/12/2018)

I like Jennifer Garner quite a bit, but it seems to me that she has once again stepped way out of line by accepting the lead role in this action flick with its impotent screenplay. Not even a seasoned director like Pierre Morel was able to improve on this completely uninteresting and boring story. (35%) (24/06/2022)
