The Film Guide | Movie Review English Cast: Margot Robbie, Simon Pegg, Dexter Fletcher
Margot Robbie, you little beauty! That is what her latest work Terminal left me feeling as the end credits rolled. This feeling is both the positive and the negative associated with this movie. One one hand we have the charismatic Margot Robbie giving us a power pack performance and on the other there is hardly anything else to write home about the movie. Yes, the treatment is stunning, but not anything different than what we have seen in movies like Sin City or Suicide Squad. The contrast of black and red and the dark themes have been done before and the film guide feels that it isn't enough to make a statement. Has the Robbie performance saved the film? Well, I'd say yes! If nothing else she would encourage one to watch the movie once. I'd watch it multiple times for her alone.
Simon Pegg is average and the rest of the cast does an OK job. The direction is just mediocre and nothing too fancy. They could've made a much better movie with the same revenge oriented theme. The story is interesting, but patchy in places and the shift in time frame makes it a little difficult to enjoy the view Margot presents throughout.
All in all, Margot Robbie has made the film guide a fan all over again. There is at least a point dedicated to her alone in this Hollywood movie review.
