Hanna
(Video link)
I wasn't sure at the beginning of the Hanna trailer, but as it turned into the ultra-brutal action movie the idea grew on me. What's perhaps most intriguing is that the eponymous trained child killer is played by Saoirse Ronan. I didn't recognise the name to start with, but then I looked at the director and I recognised her straight away. She played the ultra-gifted brat Briony in Joe Wright's previous movie "Atonement" (some might also recognise her from "The Lovely Bones"). The idea of Joe Wright turning the same actress who played the young Briony into a ruthless killer child sounds amazing. The way I see it, this will either be absolutely fantastic or it'll be awful. I cannot imagine this falling anywhere imbetween.
First pic is Briony from Atonement. Her cold heartless eyes make her perfect for the new role as "Hanna" (left hand side of second pic).
