Plots(1)
In this high school action comedy, a teenage special ops agent yearning for a "normal" adolescence fakes her own death and enrolls as an exchange student in a typical American high school. She quickly learns that surviving the treacherous waters of high school can be more difficult than international espionage. (A24)
Reviews (1)
A comic book film that stylistically - and somewhat in its casting - suits Robert Rodriguez. But instead of being a great action film like Kick-Ass or Kingsman, which the initial premise reminded me of, it's a teen comedy about the struggles of fitting in when pretending to be a Canadian. But in the end, it all works out, and everything bad turns into good. Jessica Alba is a terrible villain.
