Jaime King unleashes a fusillade of bullets in a confounding, girl power actioner. Code Name Banshee has a former CIA assassin, her mentor, and his daughter ducking an acerbic old adversary with a legion of goons. The villain spends the film calling for cannon fodder reinforcements like ordering a pizza. Code Name Banshee plays fast and loose with timelines that make little sense. It also uses bizarre flashback cinematography that looks awful. The blood-splattering gunplay offers minor thrills. Violence abounds throughout as the female protagonists shred baddies.
