I’m sure you’ve noticed some trends in my reviews of the shows I like. If the show has women who kick butt or a killer soundtrack I will fall madly in love with it. Noir fits BOTH of these criteria! Color me overjoyed and in fan heaven. The show’s two female protagonists are no slouches; in fact they are high caliber assassins. The show is like a precursor to Black Lagoon, in that the show is orientated on the ladies and if there are men on the scene, they usually are the ones wringing their hands in the corner or getting beat up.
