Zoe Saldana Learns to Take a Fall

'Colombiana' stunt school.

When the stunt guy is missing an eye...? Is that a good sign or a bad sign?

'Colombiana' Featurette Part 2

Part 1

'Colombiana' Mini Featurette

Usually actors point weapons high -- by the time the round gets where it's going it would be a few inches to twenty feet over the target's head depending on the range.

If Neil McCauley was shooting at you, you might could get away. Chris Shiherlis, though, if he's shooting you could tap dance your way outta there no problem.










Dude, you're killing pigeons on the wing three blocks away, not shooting cops hiding behind their cars. (No offense, Val. You replaced those empty clips like nobody's business).

In this featurette Zoe Saldana holds weapons pretty dang-ole level. Cataleya Restrepo is putting rounds right between the eyes. Given a choice, I'd rather have Jason Bourne shooting at me. You'd have a chance.

New Poster for 'Colombiana'










































Sorry, I like the first one better.  New poster looks like a test. Don't think it works. (Well, more to the point, it's a disaster).

Stay conventional. Movies with female protagonists, especially action movies, have a hard enough time drawing an audience. Don't reinvent the wheel on the marketing for 'Colombiana'. Zoe Saldana deserves better.

Keep the one sheets gritty and tough and forget the floral overlays.
