Im not happy about the look of the shades, but what bothers me so far is that lack of inherent menace, the sense of barely constrained violence of Molly.

She needs to radiate imminent death. So far, I'm just seeing an attractive woman in a "futuristic" suit with shiny sunglasses. Molly wasent just "shades and blades," she was someone jacked to the nines, lithe and ferocious.

The stills aren't doing her justice. Hopefully live action does.

Looks like she's walking out of an Apple store

Is that like "iPhone face" but for sci-fi?

I would have made the mirror shades a little bigger and more angled but also clearly embedded in her face, and the mirror surface look a lot nicer. The key is that the shades should completely obscure any facial expressions she would be making around her eyes in order to look cold. I’d also make her hair darker, but maybe in an unnatural shade of blue-black.
