BRIAN VINER reviews Thunderbolts*: These superheroes are super-silly... but Flo's supercharged


BRIAN VINER: For an actress not yet 30, Florence Pugh has a thrillingly varied set of credits.

The film’s chief villain is CIA director Valentina Allegra de Fontaine (the ever-excellent Julia Louis-Dreyfus, left, playing a ramped- up version of Selina Meyer in TV satire Veep), whose eager assistant Mel (Geraldine Viswanathan) becomes increasingly concerned about her boss’s evil chicanery. Facing an impeachment trial and determined to get rid of anyone who might testify against her, Valentina lays a trap for the motley crew she used to send out to do her dirty work, who also include the Winter Soldier (Sebastian Stan), would-be Captain America John Walker (Wyatt Russell), Taskmaster (Olga Kurylenko) and Ghost (Hannah John-Kamen).
