"Hanna" Takes Viewers On A Captivating Thrill Ride

SOUTHFIELD (WWJ) - Imagine what life is like for most 16-year-old girls. Lots of them are enjoying Sweet 16 parties, pajama parties, hanging out with friends, learning to drive -- the list goes on and on.

Life's a lot different for 16-year-old Hanna -- and it has been since the day she was born. Hanna has experienced life in the woods, living with her father, who has raised her to be the perfect assassin. Once Hanna convinces her dad she's ready to leave the wilds, she's dispatched on a mission across Europe, all the while being tracked by a ruthless intelligence agent and her operatives.

Hanna is captivating from start to finish. It's a suspenseful, action-packed thrill ride with numerous twists and turns along the way. If action is your cup of tea, I'm sure you'll find Hanna to your liking.

Hanna is rated PG-13 and it's suitable for MOST members of the family. However, due to the nature of the film, my opinion is that this movie is more appropriate for more mature film-goers, so if I were rating this movie, I would give it an R. Not because of any sexual innuendo or sex scenes (there are none), but simply because of the nature of the film.

Hanna stars Saoirse Ronan as Hanna, Eric Bana as Hanna's dad, and Cate Blanchett.

Enjoy the movies -- and don't forget the popcorn!
