Hanna movie review

Joel D. Amos — Fri, 08 Apr 2011 13:28:00 -0700

Hanna is unlike anything you have ever seen before. As filmed by director Joe Wright, the movie is a visual marvel. Add a stunning performance by its lead -- Oscar nominee Saoirse Ronan -- and powerful turns by Eric Bana and Cate Blanchett, and audiences have the first really great film of 2011.
