Featured review
It does not add anything new to the genre
(2014) Kite
SCIENCE-FICTION ACTION
Story adapted from the popular Japan animation of the same name, starring India Eisley as Sawa in the dystopian future, attempting to seek retribution to the criminals she suspects who might have something to do with her parents deaths. She accomplishes to get away to execute her alleged attackers with the help of a homicidal detective, Lt. Karl Aker played by Samuel Jackson, who pays her by feeding her some kind of drug. Reminiscent of a futuristic "La Femme Nikita".
If I am judging this by action sequences alone in science-fiction times, then it's nothing new as opposed to "The Fifth Element" and "Total Recall" to "Equilibrium" to name a few.
