Mireille Enos was really *beep* annoying
Most characters were decently cast but she is just really really annoying and *beep* How did she even get the part?!?
shareHave you seen those other hollywood films where they *attempt* to portray a female character as the female version of Arnold? Well, all the others are completely ridiculous, insulting, and unbelievable. I've never been impressed by females in films that are supposed to be kick-ass.
However, Sabotage is the only film where I felt that the female-kickass character was believable and amazing. She did not seem out of place at all throughout the film and I thought she did an awesome job fitting in wth a group of guys like in the film. This is the one movie that finally vindicated the female-kickass role.
Mireille was great in my opinion.
Lizzie was mentally unstable.
shareIn the film, Lizzie murdered the team because they "Stole the Money". I think it would had worked better, if Lizzie revealed that she sold out Breacher to the drug cartel and allowed the drug cartel to torture and murder Breacher's family. After the raid, the drug cartel made a deal with Lizzie and promised her a share of the money, if she murdered the team and got the money back and Lizzie convinced Sugar to help her carry out the killings and promised him a share in the money. It would had been a better motive for Lizzie to kill the team.
shareI ended up liking her character--or more accurately, loving to hate her. She wasn't just the rough and tumble token tough chick, she was unhinged, an addict, and probably the worst human being of a group of very despicable people.

^^^ Ditto. She was a "love to hate" kind of person. Totally unhinged, still a great operator, and basically coming apart at the seams throughout the whole movie as the stress of her world takes her apart.
