The movie Colombiana was made in 2011, starring Zoe Saldana. This film is about a young girl named Cataleya, growing up in Columbia. At a very young age she sees both of her parents murdered in front of her. The people that killed her parents are now after her, so she runs away and gets on a train and goes to America to live with her uncle. While in America, her uncle asks her what she wants to be when she grows up, and she said “a killer”. At first he thought she was just kidding and that this was just a phase, but it wasn’t. When she grew up her mission in life was to kill everyone that had anything to do with her parent’s murder. She does some crazy things just so she can get to, and kill the people she wants. For example she pretends to be drunk get in a car accident so she can go to jail, and kill a guy that is in the specific jail. She is very sneaky and tricky, she always is in costume so then people never know it’s her. What she sometimes does is would kill someone’s family member or a close friend first, and then kill the person that she was really going after. So then the real person she was after could feel the pain of how she felt when her parents were killed. Some of the reviews that I read were just kind of so-so. They had compared it to “Man on Fire” but a female version. Which I kind of agree with but it is a lot better. I didn’t go see this movie in theaters, but after I had watched it at home I really wished I had! I loved it; it was so good that I watched it twice in one day. It’s full of action, drama, a little humor and yes of course a little bit of romance. So yes of course, I think that is worth your time and money because it has a little of everything for everyone.
