Review of American Ultra (2015) by Kotyonok — 09 Sep 2015

This movie has so many surprisingly good elements that I don't want to give it a bad review. The acting's charming, and the romantic parts are generally sweet and believable. But if you're looking for a fun action movie, don't bother- most of the action is in the trailer, and it's not always well paced in the movie itself (the same goes for at least half the humor, IMO).

The people who made this movie also don't seem to be sure whether they're making a Bourne Ultimatum-style "having a bunch of brainwashed assassins is totally crazy and wrong" statement, or if they're in more of a "let's kill bad guys in fun and splashy ways" mindset, which is also pretty annoying considering the ending.
