Steven Soderbergh’s Haywire is a Forgotten Spy Thriller That Does a Lot With a Little

Steven Soderbergh’s 2011 spy thriller, Haywire, is a surprisingly great film that doesn’t get nearly enough attention. It stars Gina Carano as a highly skilled operative who’s double-crossed and left to fend for herself. Featuring a fantastic cast including Michael Fassbender, Ewan McGregor, and Channing Tatum, Haywire is easily one of the best thrillers of the last fifteen years and well worth watching.
