Return to Cinema 2021 - Fatale

Fatale is the latest of those films studios had in the can held to be drip feed to the cinema chains in the case of filming go slow. COVID gave us that go slow. So we get the straight to video on demand (or in the old days, straight to DVD/video) Fatale.

With a strong cast Hilary Swank (also a producer), Michael Ealy (Secrets & Lies - US edition, season 2) and Mike Colter (Luke Cage) I was expecting more. The trailer also is put together well enough to draw viewers in.


As NSW residents close in on their Dine & Discover vouchers expiring soon, it's a must not to let that money go to waste. So at some cinemas a $25 Discover voucher will equal two tickets. Bargain!

OK so is this worth on of your two valuable Dine vouchers? Yes and no. Predictable, yes, engaging, well yes, however for a film just under two hours in length, it felt long.

Fatale will win no awards, probably end up on some streaming service in a few months and be largely forgotten. But if the weather prediction is right and it's getting cool. Maybe give this B grade (or it could even be C grade) thriller a go.

Just passing at 2.5 Stars.
