American Ultra

American Ultra 




A stoner - who is in fact a government agent - is marked as a liability and targeted for extermination. But he's too well-trained and too high for them to handle.

Director: Nima Nourizadeh
Writer: Max Landis
Stars: Jesse Eisenberg, Kristen Stewart, Connie Britton

Storyline

Small-town stoner Mike Howell (Jesse Eisenberg) spends most of his time getting high and writing a graphic novel about a superhero monkey. What Mike doesn't know is that he was trained by the CIA to be a lethal killing machine. When the agency targets him for termination, his former handler activates his latent skills, turning the mild-mannered slacker into a deadly weapon. Now, the utterly surprised Mike must use his newfound abilities to save himself and his girlfriend from getting wasted.

Reviews

I had fun with this movie. I came in loving Jesse Eisenberg with his movies like, Adventureland, The Social Network,and Zombieland. I was on the fence about Stewart in the picture but i had faith in Jesse to carry the chemistry the two hand in Adventureland. I was pleasantly surprised with the film there was not a dull moment for me i was even invested in the relationship on the two stoner's.This movie is jam packed with hilarious action, intense scenes, and tons of fun. The best analogy I've heard was, "It's Pineapple Express meets Mr & Mr.s Smith" This movie is full of laughs lots of action.Even if you're not a stoner, i'm sure you will get "high" on this flick.
