The Review: Kate


Kate 7/10


Miss Jackie suggested this movie called Kate on Netflix to me and I'm glad she did. I like revenge movies. I like them even more when the story is simple. This is about this assassin named Kate that has a handler named Varrick. She calls him V. She is in Japan to kill this dude when she sees that he has a kid. She wants to call it off but is told to complete it. The voice lets her know when the kill window is closing. She does it just in time spraying the guys daughter with blood. Its pretty fucked up since she broke her own code of not killing in front of kids. She says her next assignment is her last and V. is like “Hmm...we'll see about that.” Before her last gig she meets this dude in a bar and they make the sex after drinking. She ends up fucking up the shot and wakes in a hospital having been poisoned with one day to live. After this it is a lot of shooting, violent ass fights, and some very creative camera work. Oh, and a teenage girl that I couldn't stand. Y'all know how I feel about the youth in films. They tend to be incredible or make a movie unwatchable. Thankfully I was able to survive this child and enjoy the film. Oh, and I was mad that I didn't recognize the star of this movie. I have seen her plenty of times but her face does not stay in my head for some reason. I was legit baffled when I saw who it was thinking it was some brand new action star in the making.
