Angel of Death, Thank God for the sexy assassin…Kicking ass and arousing moviegoers for damn-near decades, the sexy assassin has racked up quite a body count in Hollywood – as well as comics and literature for equally as long – allowing actresses to show off their very best assets while proving that the men hadn’t yet cornered the market on the action genre. So the character of Eve in Angel of Death is hardly anything new, but she’s violent and brutal and sexy as hell, and when this mob assassin is injured (read: stabbed in the head) during a job, the subsequent visions of her victims lead her to seek revenge on her bosses before their newest hitman can put her in the ground.
But to call Angel of Death a “full-length action movie,” as the film is indeed advertised, is a little disingenuous, if not necessarily incorrect. In truth, it is a series of short web-based vignettes that tie rather neatly together to form a 75-minute narrative. Consequently, it is, by its very nature, hamstrung from looking or feeling much like a fully produced film, so at fifteen minutes shy of an hour and a half and lacking the polish required for Hollywood-style gunfights and choreographed beat-downs, Angel of Death is neither “full length,” nor strictly speaking an action-movie. It is, however, serviceably entertaining for two very worthwhile reasons.
