Saoirse Ronan shines as Hanna - a young, attractive, energetic, and adventurous survivalist trained by her father to survive, hunt, and kill. The pace of the story moves right along and you're always interested in what happens next to Hanna, but there are some gaping holes in the story that leave questions unanswered, and the movie is halfway evolved before you really figure out what Hanna’s background is all about, although the solid roller coaster feeling of mystery and intrigue kept me entangled in Hanna. Some of the scenic background was impressive. I found the movie ended too starkly for me, feeling sort of left hanging in it as if the creators and producers imply that they thought Hanna would inspire or spawn a series or a trilogy of Hanna movies. While this a good cross between a high tech movie and a fairy tale I don’t think I’d become that entrenched with “Hanna, the series”. Not for my children when 12 or under and I think Mom & Dad would probably like Hanna.
