I highly recommend Anna this movie to friends who like reverse movie plots. Simply, you can ignore the kind of friends who are literary and pure fighting and shooting stories. But all male friends, maybe can't resist this movie, why?

The story focuses on the growth of the mysterious female killer Anna and her experience in performing various assassination missions. Beneath her beautiful appearance, Anna has a brilliant mind and powerful fighting skills. She is one of the most terrifying assassins in the world. She wanders between black and white, and as long as she is locked on, she never misses. The protagonist Anna (played by Sasha Ruth), although she has completed many tasks under the cover of modelling in the play, in fact, in real life, Sasha Ruth is a real model of the Russian Federation. At this time, the audience has a kind of A sense of relief: No wonder Anna is so beautiful, enchanting, and charming.

However, beauty alone is not enough to attract the audience's pity and sympathy for Anna's twisted fate and desire for freedom. In the play, the story uses narrative methods such as interspersed forward and reverse order, allowing the audience to wander through the director's wonderful ideas. Luc Besson is one of the greatest French and international directors. Luc Besson is a very talented director, his films are of high standard, his style is both literary and passionate, and imaginative at the same time. The audience's favorite "Fifth Element", "Very Trafficker" series, "Taxi Express" series are all his amazing works.

Just like the core of this film, it inherits the artistic atmosphere of Luc Besson's works. Anna went from a part-time college student to a famous French model, actually under the arrangement of the former Soviet KGB. After completing the task in France, the introduction of the characters in the film came. It turns out that Anna came from a difficult background and was bought back from a brothel by a gangster, and she has been living a dark day. until it was caught by the KGB. However, in the execution of a mission, he was discovered by the CIA. In order to save his life, he became an American insider and was arranged to assassinate senior case investigators of the former Soviet Union. However, all of this was discovered by the Russian side... In this way, as the two forces coerced and dealt with each other, in the end, Anna used her own strength to hold both the United States and the former Soviet Union in the palm of her hand, and let her love her at the same time. two men in a dilemma. However, where is Anna in the end? Did you get away with it all? do not know. Because Anna has disappeared, she went to find her own freedom.

The ideological core of the film is the freedom that Anna pursues.

Whether it's accepting a mission or falling in love with the two male protagonists, it's all about finding a freedom: a desire to lie on a lonely island by the beach in Hawaii and enjoy the tranquility. But in Anna's eyes, this freedom is very rare. When she was young, her parents died early, and Anna couldn't let go of her life. The subsequent assassination life made her realize that whether it is money or security, she can only give herself to herself, and cannot rely on anyone or any institution.

The KGB and the US Central Intelligence Agency, the British MI6 and Israel's Mossad, and known as "the world's four major intelligence agencies." However, despite the support of such a powerful institution, it is ironic that Anna has to be suspicious and guarded against him everywhere. In short, Anna is not this Anna! In this film, Anna has no real name, only her body tells her that she should live in the present, because the future is full of variables . (film critic Mei Zhenjie)
