Mary Elizabeth Winstead plays the titular character, yet another pro assassin who’s trying to track down the person responsible her poisoning. The only new thing this actioner adds is that she has 24 hours to live. She even teams up with a Japanese teen for some emotional weight. This is latest entry into the fast-growing kick-ass chicks genre, like the recent Amazon release Jolt (my review). The action is what make them matter and there are some well-choreographed fights with plenty of breaking bones, flying bodies and endless bullets. Otherwise, it’s pretty much standard fare.
