Tomboy is a gritty revenge thriller with a shocking premise: a hitman is forcibly turned into a woman and seeks revenge on the doctor responsible. Michelle Rodriguez gives a bold performance, and Sigourney Weaver stands out as the cold, calculating surgeon.
While the film has a unique style and strong acting, its treatment of gender issues feels shallow and exploitative. The plot is messy, and the tone shifts awkwardly between serious and absurd.
Interesting idea—but poorly executed.
