The CinePearl Take

Theron’s physicality is the film’s greatest asset; she throws punches with the same cold precision as her espionage tactics. Director David Leitch, a former stunt coordinator, crafts relentless pacing that never lets the tension drop, even when the plot gets knotty. The subtle queer subtext adds an extra layer, making the spy game feel personal as well as political.
