Hanna combines a gripping thriller with a dark fairy-tale twist. The film uniquely portrays Hanna’s transformation from a sheltered assassin to a girl discovering the world. Ronan’s performance is robust, anchoring the film’s fast-paced and sometimes brutal action sequences. While the plot sometimes stretches believability, the cinematography and intense soundtrack significantly enhance the viewing experience. Despite mixed reviews about its originality, Hanna remains an engaging watch thanks to its style and Ronan’s compelling portrayal of the lead role.
