Movie review - "Aeon Flux" (2006) **

Charlize Therzon is very attractive and a good actor but she isn't charismatic enough to hold a full film without a real character. It doesn't help that this story is glum and played out by a glum cast - aren't there any jokes in the future? Highlights include some scenes of Charlize in skimpy underwear (the film would have benefited by being trashier), a vicious blade of grass, and a shoot out at the end. But it is a bit silly. And spoilt - why does she have to blow up the ship at the end? What's the hurry?
