Not a bad little thriller, with a good cast (notably Sissy Spacek and Kris Kristofferson), but the plot is a bit thin and the dialogue could do with a bit of sharpening up. Good pizza movie, though, and much better than Killing Them Softly.

Deadfall
Another through my LoveFilm subscription, this is a suitably chilly crime story. After their escape from a casino heist has gone wrong, siblings Addison (Eric Bana) and Lisa (Olivia Wilde) split up to make their way to the Canadian border, only to meet up accidentally at someones Thanksgiving dinner.

Hanna
This is available through LoveFilm Instant, although I have seen it in the shop. Hanna has been brought up by her father, an ex-CIA agent, in the wilds of Finland to exact revenge for her mother's death.
Not a bad film, if a little creepy for some vague reason. I think this may be because the title role is played by Saoirse Ronan (who played the younger Briony in Atonement) as a kind of lethal innocent. It's got a good supporting cast, with Cate Blanchett as her nemesis and and Eric Bana as her father. I just kept getting the feeling that Social Services ought be have been involved at some point.
