Proud Mary

John Cassavetes’ “Gloria” is re-imagined as a blaxploitation throwback starring Taraji P. Henson as Mary, a professional killer who works for a Boston crime family. When she encounters young Danny (Jahi Di’Allo Winston)--orphaned and running drugs for the Russian mob ever since Mary killed his father--she decides to become the boy’s guardian, putting herself in the middle of a bloody battle between rival criminal organizations. With Billy Brown, Neal McDonough, Xander Berkeley, and Danny Glover. 89 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English.
