Trailer
Why watch this film?
Luc Besson has a trademark: action thrillers starring deadly female leads. This was the case with 'Nikita: Programmed to Kill' and 'Lucy', for example. The director and screenwriter repeats the formula with 'Anna: The Danger Has a Name', with a protagonist that reminds us a lot of Nikita: a young woman trained by the government to be a spy and also a killing machine. The difference here is that Anna doesn't want to rediscover who she really is, but rather escape her past. The film delivers the stylized action that has been Besson's trademark since 'The Fifth Element', as well as a plot with its twists, in the style of 'Atomic'. As you noticed, the feature film brings that déjà vu feeling, with a true collage of what we have seen in other productions. Still, for action fans or the director, it's worth watching. Oh! The cast has its familiar faces, such as Helen Mirren, Luke Evans and Cillian Murphy, as well as Sasha Luss in her first lead role.

Léon: The Professional
One of the masterpieces of filmmaker Luc Besson, in an action-packed story set in New York (although the entire movie was filmed in France, something that goes unnoticed by the viewer due to the great locations and set design). Amazing performances by Jean Reno and Gary Oldman, but who really steals the show is the still young Natalie Portman. A movie that any action movie fan must watch.
Thriller
Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 2
Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey 2 is the unlikely sequel to the feature film that placed the characters of this playful and childlike universe into a world of violence and horror. However, don't expect a production as weak as the previous film: with the success of the first installment at the box office, the production had more money to invest, and thus Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey 2 manages to be more realistic, violent, and impressive compared to the first film. The characters' masks are much scarier, and it ceases to be a complete joke. It's still difficult to take the film entirely seriously, especially with this bizarre premise of Pooh and his friends seeking bloody revenge, but you can already feel more fear and, above all, immerse yourself in the wave of violence that the film promotes. To have fun with friends.
Sleeping Dogs
Roy Freeman, an ex-homicide detective with a fractured memory, is forced to revisit a case he can’t remember. As a man’s life hangs in the balance on death row, Freeman must piece together the brutal evidence from a decade-old murder investigation, uncovering a sinister web of buried secrets and betrayals linking to his past. With only instincts to trust, he faces a chilling truth - sometimes, it’s best to let sleeping dogs lie.
