O'Romeo review

By Joel Humphries Β· Watched 02.18.26

β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… 4 / 5

Spoiler-free review

O’Romeo is a fun, knife-forward piece of mayhem that nearly talks itself out of its own pleasures. The pacing would improve considerably if someone trimmed twenty minutes of conversation and trusted the action to do more of the communicating. For the sequel: fewer speeches, more blades, and perhaps a basic firearms lesson for the lady hitman before cameras roll. Maybe my standards were low, but the movie cleared them with enough style and energy to make the excess forgivable. πŸ˜†

This was fun. Maybe my standards are too low. πŸ˜† The only major issue was the pacing, they child maybe trim about 20 minutes off of this as it gets a little too talkie. Less talking more knife work for the sequel. Maybe show lady hitman how to hold a gun next time. πŸ”«
