"Colombiana". Actors of the first plan: Zoe Saldana

According to the statement of Olivier Megaton and Luc Besson, the creators of the action-packed action movie under the string of action-packed scenes, revenge is beautiful. Make sure of this can every film-man, having seen their joint project "Colombian" (actors: Z. Saldana, H. Molla, L. James, A. Stenberg, M. Vartan and others).

The inexorable mix

The famous Luc Besson, being the permanent screenwriter and producer of the predominant share of French film production, together with his ally and co-author Robert Mark Kamen, during the work on the scenario of the new militant repeatedly turned to the materials of Latin American TV series. This technique allowed the creators to imbue with the color and spirit of Latin American countries, so the militant "Colombian" sometimes looks like classic Argentine or Brazilian soap operas. The painting is direct, sometimes simple-minded, with excessively dramatic emotions, full of newfangled episodes of French parkour.

Doubtful virtues

Director Olivier Megaton, one of the devoted Bessonite associates, managed to make a film in such a way that according to the world's critics, he involuntarily resembles the nonexistent sequel of Leon and Carrier in the Colombian manner. This turned out to be "Columbian". The actors involved in the project are largely unknown. The only exception was the star "Avatar" - a dark-skinned actress Zoe Saldana. Other undoubted merits of the film are the verified camerawork of Romaine Lakurbas and the unsurpassed clip-editing by Camille Delamarre.

Plot

The plot of the militant "Colombian", the actors and roles were selected each other in agreement with Besson himself, has a standard structure for films about revenge. The main heroine Kataleya (actress Amanda Stenberg) at the age of nine is experiencing a terrible tragedy. With its parents, the militants of the Colombian drug cartel are ruthlessly cracking down. It takes 15 years, and the matured girl (Zoya Saldana) becomes a professional killer, living under the patronage of her uncle Emilio (actor Cliff Curtis).

On the body of each of his victims, Katalea leaves a message for the killers of his beloved parents - a drawing of an orchid. She has more than 22 victims on her account. But no one pays attention to the messages of the woman. But it was only her boyfriend, a free artist (performed by Michael Vartan), to photograph the sleeping lover, as a vortex of unpleasant events with the participation of the special forces of the police and the killers of the drug cartel is immediately formed around the girl. This plot twist in the film "Colombian" actors, starring in the film, dubbed the beginning of a crazy action in the narrative narrative.

The film of one actor

Whatever one may say, "Colombiana" is a typical film of one actor. Few of those watching will remember the performers of the secondary characters. Actors of the film "Colombiana", who performed episodic roles, played in good faith, but no more. You can choose Cliff Curtis, New Zealand actor and producer, who played the role of Uncle Emilio, who brought up Catalina. Curtis began his career with participation in a number of New Zealand film projects, before moving to the United States, where he received supporting roles. He lit up in the following series: "Trauma", "Missing", "Criminal connections" and "Be afraid of walking dead". You can not call his breakthrough participation in the militant "Colombian".
