“Heart of Stone” channels the spirit of 90s and early 2000s action films, with Gal Gadot leading as Rachel Stone, an agent of the clandestine peacekeeping outfit, the Charter. The film unfolds with anticipated plot twists as Stone confronts challenges and unravels a crisis involving a young hacker named Keya. From CGI-laden distractions to engaging hand-to-hand combat, shootouts, and chases, the action sequences offer a mix of highs and lows. The score, occasionally heavy-handed, attempts to elevate tension. Gadot’s performance is satisfactory, yet lacks the depth to fully engage, and Jamie Dornan’s portrayal of Parker is underwhelming. Ultimately, “Heart of Stone” provides a formulaic, nostalgia-driven experience with performances that fail to stand out. Visit myflixer for more!
