stylish thriller . hardly . this french action film from director luc besson be more confused and unsure about itself than anything else i have see recently . the opening action sequence show some promise and and the following action sequence be good . however they be sadly too few and far between . the drama be dull and erratic and and the character be generally unlikeable . anne parillaud and the support cast be unable to involve the audience emotionally . la femme nikita end up more like a try hard and b grade action thriller . very average . saturday and april 28 and 1991 balwyn cinema .
