    That's an enjoyable fast-paced film!
    First of all, when I first watched the official trailer of the movie I liked it and I had high expectations about it. Eventually, it was as good as I had imagined and I enjoyed it. The plot of the movie was very interesting and mysterious, but not innovative because there are too many movies similar to this one. The storyline was well-written and well-explained, even though it was simple and easy to understand. The characters were very interesting, well-developed and likeable (except, Philip). The casting of the movie was nice and their performances were descent. Gladly, it was a very intense movie, action-filled and there were some nice fight scenes. The killcount of the movie was very bloody and brutal, but there weren't many death scenes. The opening scene of the movie was definitely unpredictable and very promising. The ending twist was unexpected and it definitely caught me off guard. Moreover, the cinematography and the score of the movie were both very well done. Overall, "Lou" was an enjoyable action film, adventurous and I would definitely recommend it to anyone. Last but not least, I'm definitely looking forward for a sequel!

    By the numbers Netflix movie
    This could have been written by a ten year old. Janney is an accomplished actress but the Netlix money must be very tempting. All the tired cliches are here, special forces, dominant women, CIA, blah, blah, blah. You'd think that a character who was supposed to have served in Iran could pronounce the name of the country correctly. Netlix has become a good place to go for series, but the movies that they produce are predictable and boring. Every once in a while I break down and try one. Almost invariably, I regret it. I've been keeping their DVD service so I can see real movies, but now they're cancelling that.
