The movie has an interesting premise, Abigail Breslin is a good and pretty actress and her mentor Wes Bentley... has a nice face.

I like the setting in the sixties, The sober style of the movie is rather cool. But once the 4 killers and Abigail get to the forest the whole story gets boring and stupid.

Nothing is been told about what happened to Abigail's parents, there is no explanation about the motive of the killers' behavior and what is really the reason for her mentor to train a small girl in fighting and surviving to kill those guys in particular? Or is she a weapon that will be used against many criminals and killers? Wouldn't it be easier to just shoot them himself? And who is he anyway, is he working for the police or just a freelance problem solver?

Also the hallucinations of the killers after being drugged are not very interesting or scary. The whole chase in the forest is dull and the fights are silly. Only the last fight with the leader of the killers is a little better. It was funny when he proposed to Abigail to marry and... kill people.

I rate this movie a score of 4 out of 10 (3 points for the acting of Abigail Breslin and 1 point for the couch in the forest).

Trained to be a final girl, to finish it off the transgressions.

Trained to be a final girl, to finish it off the transgressions.

The storyline is not bad, even though it is a very familiar concept, but it was not developed smartly enough with scenes and twists and all. The characters are fine, but I was not convinced with the casting. Not everybody, only Breslin. I have been watching her films since she was a child artist, only her recent film are not that great, or even simply good to appreciate her involvement. I blame her choices of the film and its filmmakers. As for this, it's clearly visible that she's not physically suitable to do such role. This kind of film is for Chloe Grace. For me she's more a Disney product.

The other actors were not bad, especially those four fellows in the negative roles. There's nothing to talk about Wes Bently, he was like in a guest role. When it comes to the film story, it does not make any sense at all. Okay, training a person from the very young age to be terminator is very interesting for a film. But when the assignment was given to that person, as per how it all took place in this film, I thought it was unnecessary. Because it could have been dealt in an easy way. So just for the film, they took the hard way and shed some blood.

Happy part was, the film did not look so boring. The setting was too dark, they avoided other unrequired characters to enter into the frame. So to focus everything on those few ones and made an attempt to shape up the film as much possible best. I would have liked it if it was a little better in some sections. In the end, I'm not fully satisfied, so I don't think it is worth a watch. Instead, you should check out other similar concept films like 'Hanna', 'Nikita' et cetera.

4/10

Final Girl has an interesting premise however the plot is so weak and convoluted that it really does not stand up. Beautifully shot with a great cast, but I really was expecting more.

I mean as an adult she still sucked at training, but shouldn't she be so much better at it already since she was recruited when she was a child? So many plotholes it's insane. However, the ending with the chasing was quite alright! Expand
