Review of Everly

We all need a little Salma Hayek in our lives. I watched the trailer for this and decided I was definitely going to check it out when I got the chance. It looks like a chaotic action fest and this time it's with a woman which is a nice change. It's directed by Joe Lynch who did the second Wrong Turn film and Knights of Badassdom both of which I highly enjoyed! About a minute and a half of logos before the movie starts is kind of frustrating. It kind of feels like Smoking Aces meets a reverse version of The Raid. The violence is intense and badass. I do like that it all takes place in one apartment with shots viewed from the room or on video feed. I really enjoyed this one and it doesn't require too much thinking. The villains were so psychotic and yet awesome to watch. It even had some humorous moments throughout. If you like off the wall action, crazy villains, and Salma Hayek then you shouldn't be disappointed.
