Hanna

Hanna (2011) starring Saoirse Ronan, Eric Bana, Cate Blanchett. Hanna (Ronan) is a teenaged assassin, trained by her father (Bana) alone in the forest. When she is sent on a deadly mission in Europe, she finds herself confused by civilized society and by the English family she randomly latches on to. Eventually, she discovers the secret of her genesis -- but is it too late? The movie is essentially one long chase scene, with Blanchett as the baddie who wants to do in Hanna and her father. What it lacks is heart. Ronan really gets to show her stuff in this film. The subtitles are OK, closed captions are not offered. Grade: B
