Hanna (Serial)

Based on the movie Hanna from 2011, this story follows a young woman who is trained in a remote Romanian forrest as a survivalist by her father. She is a teenager who has never had contact with any person except her father. Naturally she gets curious, leaves the forrest, and we begin a journey of discovery. Hanna is immediately taken prisoner and whisked away to a black site in Morocco. She escapes (duh), reunites in Europe with her father. Hanna is trying to uncover clues about herself, her mother, her life. The father is embroiled in a "mission" of revenge on the people he used to work for. These two purposes, while kept secret from each other, are intertwined. At the end of the (what I am sure is) first season, the feel of the series is Jason Bourne crossed with Dollhouse crossed with Nikita. So if that appeals to you...
4 stars (out of 5)
