“A Lonely Woman” (**1/2 out of four) was a fairly intriguing vigilante thriller about a shy and reserved girl (Youlika Skafida) who transforms into a dark and merciless avenger out to obtain vengeance and justice when her parents are murdered and she is viciously attacked and the police are slow to respond. Umpteenth “Death Wish” imitation holds its grip thanks to Skafida’s strong presence and performance but starts to wear out after a while, as film’s cold-heart and violence leaves a bad taste. Similar in some ways to Jodie Foster’s 2007 vigilante thriller “The Brave One.”
