Daisy Ridley in "The Cleaner"

Oh, I'm sure it's going to flop (and it probably doesn't help that it looks like a gender-bent/girl boss "Die Hard") but I might check it out.

It's directed by Martin Campbell, who rarely delivers a bad movie. And he knows action. It's rated R. Clive Owen as the bad guy. It's probably worth a shot, at least.

She is a very attractive "elf person". One of those unremarkable people whose features are SO plain yet symmetrical that she can't help but be pretty even if she lacks in the supernormal-stimuli department completely.

Not unfair. And I actually liked her well enough and felt bad for how she was handled by the ST movies until the rote kind of "The fans are awful! They're the reason! And masculinity, too!" stuff started coming out of her mouth.

Since it's on Prime I had this one on for about 30 minutes while I was dyeing my ottoman and I couldn't go any further. Everybody at Daisy's company she works at is your typical paper thin Corporate Evil White Guy. She has this girl boss moment where she's speaking Spanish to a Mexican janitor lady high-fiving about how Evil the Corporate Evil White Guy is, who was mean to the janitor lady a moment ago and it becomes this whole thing. I had to turn it off.
