ASSASSINATION NATION': Four Stars (Out of Five)
A dark comedy thriller about a chaotic data hack that reveals the intimate secrets of almost everyone in a small town, and the four teenage girls that must violently fight to survive it. The movie was written and directed by rookie filmmaker Sam Levinson, and it stars Odessa Young, Hari Nef, Sukie Waterhouse, Abra, Joel McHale and Bella Thorne. It's received mixed to positive reviews from critics, and it also bombed at the Box Office so far. I enjoyed most of it. The film is a little slow-paced at times, and hard to watch too (due to it's disturbing content), but it's also really involving and insightful (in an exaggerated way). The movie is also full of some cool Grindhouse thrills, at and near it's climax.
