"Close" (a Netflix original) is a decent actioner with Noomi Rapace starring as a military operative cum close protection officer for a bratty heiress who's in jeopardy of those closest to her. Yes, there are plausibility issues to be found"Close" (a Netflix original) is a decent actioner with Noomi Rapace starring as a military operative cum close protection officer for a bratty heiress who's in jeopardy of those closest to her. Yes, there are plausibility issues to be found but they're not egregious. One of the key bits of direction I did appreciate was when the young heiress broke down and cried during hostilities - now, that was a nod to plausibility that you just don't find in many current actioners. However, the denouement was hasty and unsatisfying. Director/writer/producer Vicky Jewson could've and should've done much better with it. This film had the potential to be an "8" or "9" but instead it performs at a "6", maybe "7" if you're a Noomi superfan. Expand

More great work from Noomi Rapace but not a lot else. Not usually a comment I would make about anything on Netflix but it felt like the story needed to be longer. The transitions a little more filled out and the story-end less abrupt.

5.5/10 ⚠️
Extremely bland and boring, although it is entertaining. Not a good movie but still one of the best of 2019

Noomi Rapace does her job, even if her role was hard to be credible.
The rest is completely forgettable. An action film made to become lost.
Its full direct-to-DVD equivalent just in streaming.
