'Terminal' (2018) – Vaughan Stein.
The
deliriously playful, visually sumptuous, super-stylised, Neon-Noir thriller 'Terminal' unexpectedly provided some tantalizingly off-beat B-Movie treats! Generously bejewelled with dazzling performances, combined with vividly realised art direction, and amusingly bellicose banter make this hard-boiled, hyperreal hit man hoe down a
wickedly watchable affair! It must also be said, the wonderfully charismatic actors Dexter Fletcher and
Simon Pegg were both on especially engaging form here. And while it might be strongly argued that 'Terminal' is
demonstratively more snazzy, eye-popping style than substance, perhaps, in this specific instance
that just might be the very point, being undeniably cinematic and more than just a little bit
naughty, mayte! The luxuriously photogenic Margot Robbie's mercurial murder mistress was a dangerously dazzling damsel of dispassionately delivered death, her morbidly mesmerizing Annie sinuously stalking this
gaudy, shadow-slaked Sin City like some sinisterly sublime, stilleto-savvy, single-mindedly vengeful vixen! And while the twist proved elementary, 'Terminal' is still groovier fare than Watson telly, mayte!
