Blacklight

a review by jw

predictable.

  • shadowy government agency
  • hired killers
  • cover-ups
  • grizzled professional

... if you've seen others of this type, you know the plot.

Entirely predictable and formulaic; but done by old hands, so solid enough if you don't expect anything original.


PS: A female turncoat or mole would've been an improvement, and be par for the course of this type of movie. This script however suffers from ideology; all women are good, all men are bad or in need of redemption in this movie. Which makes it even more predictable.
