COLOMBIANA

I don't get the title.  Shouldn't it have been called Cataleya?

Standard revenge flick that's elevated by Zoe Saldana's acting.  Kind of how Liam Neeson elevated TAKEN's script.

Lennie James is always good.  So is Jordi Molla.  Cliff Curtis has some nice moments as well.

Seems to me though that Cataleya could've found Don Luis anytime she wanted.  But let's not quibble.  The film delivers exactly what it promises: action.  Nice jail sequence plus I liked the bit about the sharks and the dogs in the end.

Luc Besson is churning them out.  Same type of story over and over (THE PROFESSIONAL immediately comes to mind) but you have to admit, he does it well.
