Although having good intentions with an attempt of feeling artsy and edgy, The Rhythm Section stumbles over quite a few hurdles that keep it from being as good as it should be. Starting with the positives, the performances of Jude Law, Sterling K. Brown, and especially Blake Lively were actually pretty good and convincing. I can also say that while the writing wasnt always top notch, the dialogue was actually pretty good and the cinematography gave the film a claustrophobic feel that increased the intensity of the more tense scenes. Something that I can honestly appreciate. However, that unfortunately are where the positives end. The biggest issue with the film itself is Blake Livelys character of Stephanie Patrick who is a terrible assassin. In real life, she would be easily caught as she is careless, clumsy, sloppy, leaves finger prints everywhere, and very rarely actually does what she sets out to do. Another issue the film has its that a majority of the the movie feels like just filler to fill up the runtime. At least 60% of the movie is filler while the other 40% actually feels necessary for the plot, which is something a movie should never have. And finally, the writing outside of the dialogue is forced and at times irritating. But overall, meh is the perfect word to describe The Rhythm Section as it is not a film you need to rush out and see in theaters. Its a rental at best.

Slow and seriously needed suspension of disbelief.

I liked the story and the actress's acting.

Just couldn’t keep my interest, bland storytelling, music did not fit any of the scenes. Thought it would be way better from the trailer but just wait until it comes out in Redbox.

No character development .

Minimal action scenes. Plot was too long. The movie was slow.

Loved the adventure and suspense of movie. Also loved the roominess and recliners in theater. We also played air hockey after, had a great time for our 35th Valentine’s Day 💕

Action filled and worth seeing

My husband and I really enjoyed the movie

It was a difficult story line to follow. I did not catch up until half way through the film. I was watching attentively but never understood how she encountered so many helpers and enemies. I would not recommend this film to anyone.

Very superficial, bad wigs and no character development

Convoluted, confusing and a bit far fetched.

slow but good it has potential

Terrible... Slow moving and poor acting equals a movie that I actually thought about getting up and leaving. The story line was predictable and hard to follow. The main character was not like able and or believable. A huge waste of time. A total pass.

Loved it! Hope for sequel.

Finally a movie that lives up to its hype. The Rhythm Section is exactly what it purports to be, a story about a woman who decides to seek revenge for her husband's death. There's neither exciting dialogue, nor captivating scenery, allowing the viewer to be drawn into the movie without distraction. I liked the simplicity of the movie - there was a stated goal, and the tasks necessary to accomplish that goal are the highlights of the film.

Lots of Action , I liked it

Great movie! I'm a Blake Lively fan. The plot was good and the action sequences realistic. No over the top violence. Jude Law and Sterling Brown also delivered great performances.

Horrible story line, piss poor acting and utterly boring do not waste your hard earned money to see this movie, you’ll be better off ordering a pizza at home and watching Netflix

Good action and drama Will not win any awards but worth watching
