The director for this movie, Steven Soderbergh, mentioned in an interview that he wanted to get out of movie directing. Why couldn't he have done that prior to my wasting my time and money on his latest failure?
Haywire is the story of a black ops super soldier, played by Gina Carano, who seeks payback after she is betrayed and set up during a mission.
A number of "A List" actors show up in this movie but you can see that they were only doing the Director a favor. Antonio Banderas is in the movie and he shows more passion doing the voice for Puss and Boots than he does in this Haywire.
The flick is a poor man's rip off of Angelina Jolie's Salt movie. Salt was much better and I was think throughout the show that I would be better entertained by renting and watching Salt again.. Who is Gina Carano? I don't know and after seeing her in Haywire I don't care.
You can tell from the very start of the movie, with it's eclectic 70's soundtrack, that Soderbergh was trying to make a Quentin Tarantino type flick but I don't think Tarantino could have saved this bomb.
Verdict:
Died on the vine.
