Ana de Armas was born in Cuba on April 30, 1988 and grew up in the small city of Santa Cruz del Norte. She had some minor experience in film (Una Rosa de Francia, 2006) in her native Cuba but moved to Spain, shortly thereafter at age eighteen. She had a relatively successful career in Spain, mainly in the TV series El Internado. She moved to Los Angeles in 2014, speaking very little English and, amazingly, often went to auditions not understanding what she was saying in English. “Exposed” was her second film in Hollywood. One year before she had done the film “Knock Knock”, also with Keanu Reeves, in which she still had to learn her lines phonetically and had impersonated, at age 26, an under-age seductress. It is amazing to hear her practically accent-less English in the film “Exposed”. These two films with Keanu Reeves being box-office failures, it is even more amazing that, in this very short time, she has become a major star in the 2019 “Knives Out” and the 2022 “Blonde”, impersonating Marilyn Monroe, of all people.
Having confessed to my overriding admiration for Ana de Armas, I return to the film “Exposed”. The film started its life suffering from being disowned by its director and some of its producers for excessive executive-meddling. Quoting from the Internet:
“Producer Mark Downie hoped the film would be a star vehicle for de Armas, but due to executive meddling Daughter of God [the original title for the film] was severely edited with de Armas' former starring role reduced”.
This is my personal evaluation of the film. I viewed the film multiple times – without and with the additional explanatory Extra Features – before I began to understand it. The film is too complicated for its own good. Part of it takes place in the gritty real world of NYC policing, another part in the imagination of a traumatized young woman. I pity the viewers in the theatre who could only view the film one time.
If you go through multiple viewings with a positive attitude and are willing to put in the work towards understanding this film, it is a difficult but rewarding experience.
If you're expecting some version of John Wick action because Keanu Reeves is involved, forget it. Bullets are not flying everywhere and body counts are not important features of this film. It is a bit dry and movie aficionados would probably call it a slow burn. I know, I know, slow burn is another way of saying boring. It was boring at first for me, but at the end it was intriguing film as well and I'm glad I stuck with it.
The social and psychological drama of Isabel, a fervently religious young child-care worker whose husband is serving in Iraq, and her boisterous and loving extended family, is the most engaging. The first scene really draws you in, and she continues to draw your sympathies. Our heartstrings are also plucked by Elisa, a small girl in her day care who seems to be having problems at home, and who Isabel feels very protective toward. I feel a great deal of credit should be given to the director and to Ana de Armas to a particular scene which could have been played a number of different ways but which was given both the credibility and level of sensitivity which was its due.
The detective Scott Galban, played by Keanu Reeves, is very quiet and full of pain. He is widowed, grieving for his partner, and has a young son who he loves but can't quite cope with caring for while under his current stress--he is with Galban's sister. In one scene he calls him to thank him for a birthday card, and afterwards beats himself up physically without much explanation, and it is perplexing. The most frustrating part of this film for me was how the script did not call for any articulation in this character. The partner's widowed wife, played by Mira Sorvino, is highly demanding. She wants her husband's murder investigated to the fullest, while at the same time does not want his many misdeeds to come to light in the process. She also wants Galban for dinner.
Big Daddy Kane has gravitas as the kingpin Jonathan "Black" Jones, and it is said in promos, and by the detective, that his character has "motive", but in the film his actions seem to exceed any feasable motive--ie they constitute a plot defect. Shout out also to Gabe Vargas as Rocky, whose performance was full of win, and to Laura Gomez from Orange Is The New Black.
All in all the movie achieves an admirable pacing, and tone, but is a little confused about what it wants to be. It is reported that another, original version of the film, the director's vision prior to the intervention of the studio, is significantly better edited and casts more light on the central themes and characters. One hopes that this director's cut, carrying the original "Daughter of God" title, will be made available in the near future.

Hauptdarstellerin Ana de Armas macht für meinen Geschmack einen sehr guten Job, wie auch Keanu Reeves, und die weiteren größeren Nebenrollen. Ja, Ana de Armas hat hier die Hauptrolle und Keanu Reeves ist "lediglich" in der zweiten Hauptrolle, oder größten Nebenrolle zu sehen (je nachdem wie man es sehen will). Der Film kann z.B. so eingestellt werden, dass nur die Gespräche auf Spanisch untertitelt sind. Was ich am Film gut gefunden habe ist, dass er für mich undurchsichtig bis zum Schluss war, und es am Ende einen "Aha-Effekt" bei mir gab. Und das bei jemandem der normalerweise schon vorher weiß, wie es ausgehen dürfte/müsste. So etwas mag ich. Wenn ich noch über das Ende eines Filmes überrascht werden kann.
