Atomic Blonde - 極凍之城



Atomic Blonde (極凍之城) is an 2017 film. The movie stars Charlize Theron. The supporting cast include James McAvoy, John Goodman, Sofia Boutella, and Bill Skarsgård. The movie is directed by David Leitch, the uncredited co-director of John Wick.

During the late 1980s cold war, a British spy is found and killed, but not before he's got the list of all the undercover agents in the Eastern block. The killer is set on selling the list to the highest bidder. Trouble is, its still the cold war, and its in the communist side of Berlin. Lorraine Broughton, played by Charlize Theron, is a MI6 field agent sent to track down the list. The agent on the inside is David Percival, played by James McAvoy. Together, they have to figure out where the killer is and how to get the list back before it goes public.

This movie played much like the action of John Wick. Fast paced and hard hitting. When the action starts, it's relentless and brutal. If you're a fan of Gun-fu and the John Wick series, this will be right up your alley. I for one really like the film. The music added a bit of nostalgic for me.

I rented it on Redbox and recently picked up a digital copy on sale. I am set to watch this again someday.
