Kate (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) is a professional assassin working under her mentor Varrick (Woody Harrelson). He had trained her from when she was a young orphan. She's in Japan to kill a yakuza leader. At the last moment, a girl shows up on the scene breaking her main rule of not endangering children. She is ordered to kill anyways. She considers quitting her job. Later, she is poison and given 24 hours to live or in her case, 24 hours to exact revenge.

It's the same old same old. It's another pretty girl turned trained killer. I almost appreciate more the Tokyo street life. I enjoy the vending machine and the limited back alleys. The fact is that Japan is nothing new either but it's interesting that this movie is going full Lost in Translation. As for Mary, she's never played an icy cold killer. Even in Birds of Prey, she's more an awkward dorky killer. All of that is fine. It doesn't have to be original or new. My main problem is that there is an obvious suspect. It is completely predictable and it's annoying that Kate doesn't even consider it initially. This is fine but it's not going to stand out among a very crowded field. This is likely to be forgotten soon after.

Another day, another JOHN WICK clone, this time with Mary Elizabeth Winstead taking on the Keanu Reeves role to kick it up with the Japanese Yakuza. This one suffers from a huge deficit of originality, with tired and predictable plot twists and an ending you'll see coming a mile off. There are huge problems throughout, from an inexperienced director to an inexperienced child actor, both of whom do poorly, and Winstead giving a particularly bland performance. The best actors are inevitably the Japanese - Miyavi and Jun Kunimura in particular. The good news is that the fight scenes have pretty good choreography, although the less said about THAT awful CGI car chase, the better...

Kate (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) is a trained assassin killing the Yakuza in Tokyo. She misses on a shot because she was poisoned with Po-204. She has about a day to avenge her own poisoning. She ends up working with a teen (Miku Patricia Martineau) whose father she assassinated in opening scene.

This is yet a another revenge assassin film. The plots are basically the same. Po-204 has a 3.5 hour half-life which means it must have been manufactured with 12-24 hours before it was ingested. The should have just gone with 210. Rather than attempt chelation to remove the poison, she opts to hobble around with sores and bleeding. Makes for good visual, but not very practical.
