Hanna review. Matt reviews Joe Wright's Hanna starring Saoirse Ronan, Eric Bana, Tom Hollander, Olivia Williams, Jason Flemyng, and Cate Blanchett.

Things are looking Grimm. Although spy themed, Hanna is really a fairy tale. Hanna herself is a successor to any number of fairy tale heroines; Marissa is the wicked witch. Erik is the wise old king. The movie does lack a dashing prince to save the princess, that line of thinking being rather old-fashioned these days.

And watching the oblivious Hanna interact with this corruption is just as intriguing as watching her single-handedly escape a high-security prison. Critical Movie Critic Rating: 4.

Screen Rant's Kofi Outlaw Reviews Hanna. The classic princess fairytale is currently being thoroughly deconstructed and reassembled for the modern movie audience, and so far the results have been a mix of spot-on modern sensibility (Tangled) or, more often, a spotty patchwork of undercooked ideas (Alice In Wonderland, Red Riding Hood, Sucker Punch). ...
