Review of American Ultra (2015) by Liam H — 02 Apr 2017

I have just watched American Ultra for a 2nd time and it is for sure one of the best films of this millenium so far. On the first watch I really enjoyed it but after 2nd watch the significance of it just hit me. It's a very complex, grown up plot but explained in a clear way and is easy to follow.

It's got lots of action (very clear and smooth) but it is not over bearing with action. It has elements of believeable romance and comedy. It has elements of deep human thought. It has great characters. The characters have detail and this helps to formulise them as complete wholes rather than just characters on a screen. All of the actors give good performances.

This movie is a grown up, detailed plot. The movie itself is fun to watch and thought provoking. There are no elements of this movie that are not executed professionally and done to a high level.
