The Protege


Actors: Michael Keaton, Maggie Q, Samuel L. Jackson, Patrick Malahide, David Rintoul, Ori Pfeffer, Ray Fearon, Caroline Loncq, Robert Patrick

Rating: 9 out of 10, I really enjoyed the Protégé featuring Samuel L. Jackson as a world class assassin and Maggie Q as his devoted apprentice/partner. This is Q’s movie and she’s more than capable of carrying the action. She is trying to find the people responsible for a personal tragedy and woe be unto those who stand in her way. There is a very interesting dynamic with Michael Keaton as an admiring adversary. The action is well executed and the characters fully fleshed out. I was happy to see Q get a chance to really star in her own movie versus her usual supporting role. She was more than up to the task. A great summer action flick, go see it.

MVP: Maggie Q as the deadly sexy Anna
