It's okay - an old book (or story) in a new cover. The action of Sweet Girl does not reach the same quality like Taken, The Equalizer or John Wick, or older ones like Death Wish (Charles Bronson) but you may kill some spare time without using much brainpower - if you can cope with the fact that a sweet little girl beats up rough men. One of those fast produced movies to fill some screen time - acting is okay, soundtrack and production too.
It wasn't supposed to end this way
The film opens with Aquaman talking the Jason Bourne jump off of a building. We then go back in time. Ray Cooper (Jason Momoa) and his daughter Rachel (Isabela Merced) are with their mother when she dies from cancer. The miracle drug that could save her was suddenly pulled from the market by Bioprime who spiked it. Ray meets a reporter who claims he has evidence it was all a scam involving all kinds of people and off shore accounts. After the reporter is stabbed right in front of him, Ray decides he wants answers. This leads to a trail of blood as Ray and his daughter are both fighters and are being hunted.
I liked the twist at the end, although I think it might have made a better film without it.
