Rating: 3/4 -- Point of No Return is actually a fairly effective and faithful adaptation [of La Femme Nikita], and Bridget Fonda manages the wild identity-swings of her role with intensity and conviction. Full Review

Rating: 3/5 -- An okay remake of the better LA FEMME NIKITA. Captures the spirit, but not the intensity.

It's by no means awful, but I won't re-watch it any time soon, unless I intend to gawk at Bridget Fonda. Full Review

More than anything, Fonda gives this glossy, reasonably entertaining rerun an American raison d'etre. Full Review

Product Description:

In a grim future America, Maggie (Bridget Fonda), a beautiful young street punk, is about to be executed for killing a cop during a robbery, and is given the choice between death or becoming a government assassin. She accepts the latter and is trained in all manner of martial (and feminine) arts. She ably carries out her deadly assignments, and is groomed to become a powerful killer. Maggie is given a new identity, becomes the seductive Claudia, and is sent to Venice, California, where she begins her new life. But the training takes only too well: the formerly amoral murderess proceeds to fall in love with a photographer (Dermot Mulroney) and develop a conscience. Now she wants out, but the government isn't about to let her go without a fight. Director John Badham's remake of French director Luc Besson's LA FEMME NIKITA is a stylish and thrilling adaptation, featuring a solid performance from Bridget Fonda.
