Review of American Ultra (2015) by Michael L — 25 Mar 2016
The first half of AMERICAN ULTRA made me feel the way I felt when I first saw THE TERMINATOR--ballsy, modern, fresh, mean, violent, and outrageously fun! AMERICAN ULTRA is just as good at first with a lovely depth of feeling emanating from Kristen Stewart who once again steels the show.
But then there's a character shift that undermines the pleasure and the film eventually becomes just too chaotic with fight scene after fight scene. AMERICAN ULTRA is on to something but it misses the mark unfortunately.
Still a terrific time and again, Stewart proves she is a presence to be reckoned with.
