Awful.

 

Theron obviously needs the money badly.  And "Ghost in the Shell" already employed Scarlet Johannsen, so this is another young-male-fantasy of how a woman "kicks ass" but gets also severely beaten up and shakes it off by bathing and drinking alcohol in the nude, before having soft core sex with a woman - which does not make her gay, no, that would frighten the young lads too much, but they just love to see woman-on-woman-action - and fill every scene with as many four-letter-words as you like, because hah-hah, that is so shocking these days, and please, score it with a Queen song to show off how wink-wink you are, when you actually are just emulating the trailer for the probably just as bad or worse "Suicide Squad".

 

Flop.  Please.

The swing at the end was straight out of World Is Not Enough.

Certainly is.

Looks, hmm, intriguing; did the director used to shoot pop video. Visually very good.

Fight scene (at the start of trailer) genuinely ridiculous in a Jason Stathan sort of way.

Should be fun.

My first thought as well.
