There isn’t much that works well in Canary Black. The film adheres to a recognizable formula for movies centered around female empowerment, presenting a scenario where the central character faces off against and overcomes athletic men who are considerably larger than she is—a situation that seems to disregard natural physical limitations in favor of an ideological point. However, this isn't the only problem with the movie. The plot relies on unbelievable situations. For example, a warhead detonates harmlessly when thrown out a window, and the protagonist engages in combat while wearing high heels against opponents who oddly attack one at a time. There are also several moments that feel manufactured to serve the story, like finding a knife conveniently located inside a car for cutting plastic restraints. The acting is acceptable. I found Kate Beckinsale’s performance agreeable, and I was pleased with Ray Stevenson's work—particularly his role in the series Rome, which he excelled in. He has unfortunately passed away. Ultimately, Canary Black ranges from being simply unremarkable to completely absurd, without much of a middle ground.
