shouldn't Wikipedia try not to ruin a film by sharing that Charlize Theron is the traitor that everyone is looking for within the cast list ?? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.153.22.92 (talkcontribs) 16:52, 24 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

The claim that this movie "received generally positive reviews from critics, who praised its action sequences, Theron's and McAvoy's performances, and the soundtrack, although some criticized the writing and pacing" is not supported with a RS and not adequately reported in the article.

There are various people who write introductions to film articles that claim to summarize the critical response, but they pay no attention whatsoever to what has actually been included in the critical response section below. It is possible that some critic someone may have praised McAvoy, and some critic somewhere might have complained about the pacing, making it vaguely plausible but far too often an editor has pulled it out of nowhere. What is supposed to be a summary often is selective and misleading and not really indicative of any broader trend in the reviews.

The oner

I don't have the time to write this, but it seems odd that we don't have any info about the "oner" (the pseudo-single shot) action sequence. Here are some sources for an intrepid editor: IndieWire, Variety, GQ, Rolling Stone. howcheng {chat} 04:36, 30 June 2018 (UTC)Reply
