    Slow and predictable . disappointed

    Love Ms Henson. The movie was slow and unfocused. Should have had mob family located in realistic place. Boston really??

    The writers and director should have watched a few more movies with Pam Grier as female lead. Maybe even watch domino or the female assassin from John Wick 2.

    Characters were weak and one dimensional. Hope sequel is better researched and more character development. Will be watching ?!$
