Atomic Boredom

Atomic Blonde stars Charlize Theron and is a movie directed by David Leich. This man helped to bring John Wick to the big screen. I went into the movie expecting Atomic Blonde to be the female version of John Wick. That was not the case.

Atomic blonde is boring the story is messy and the direction is poor. The time hops between the present and the past is not at all smooth. The story begins with Charlize Theron in a debriefing room telling us the story of the snoozefest that is Atomic blonde!

The movie is boring to the extent that I had paused and stopped watching the movie around the hour mark. In an hour all we see is Charlize enter east Berlin to retrieve the list. Here she meets a shady character called Percival and gets into bed with Delphine portrayed by Sophia Boutella. Believe me, that is all that happens in one hour of this movie!

I got my self to finish the movie later and the pace does pick up at the end, but it is not enough! Actors like Charlize Theron, James McAvoy and Sofia Boutella is wasted in this movie!

The movie could have been better if they had only focused on the base of the story! Charlize kicking ass while in pursuit of the list. Dead simple and interesting!

To wrap up Atomic Blonde is just not worth a watch anywhere!
