American Ultra
Directed by Nima Nourizadeh
Mike is an unmotivated stoner whose small-town life with his live-in girlfriend, Phoebe, is suddenly turned upside down. Unbeknownst to him, Mike is actually a highly trained, lethal sleeper agent. In the blink of an eye, as his secret past comes back to haunt him, Mike is thrust into the middle of a deadly government operation and is forced to summon his inner action-hero in order to survive.

60 of 82 · most liked firstWatching American Ultra for a movie night and it's even worse than I could have imagined. All of the beats in this movie read as 2009 but it's from 2015 somehow.
negative · AI labelView post →American Ultra did that for me. It was such a fun movie, and he was delightful in it.
positive · AI labelView post →Like Bari Weiss, going to become apparent quickly that he wasn't drummed out because of "woke" but because, besides of being a fucking freak rapist, he can't write. Like, you really want the American Ultra and Bright guy to write your movie?
neutral · AI labelView post →I don't think Eisenberg has ever confirmed it, but he worked with him in the movie AMERICAN ULTRA and then chose to play Lex Luthor in that particular way.
neutral · AI labelView post →I put on the beat movie i could think of to make my dad wanna stay mire than 30min after it started vs him going back home to sleep. American Ultra. It worked… movie is almost over n he hasent complained a single second I am evil… or brilliant

neutral · AI labelView post →This was the little shit who was on RLM complaining about no original movies after American Ultra flopped. Now they’re pegged for a GI Joe movie. Makes sense.
neutral · AI labelView post →American Ultra was a decent movie with a good cast. It deserved better.
neutral · AI labelView post →Movie watchers, here's one from 2015! It's a romance spy action comedy with a twist! I didn't expect to like it, but it had me laughing. It was pretty good but does have violence. American Ultra (2015) #movie #movies

negative · AI labelView post →American Ultra is a better movie than it has any right to be (I think i might be in the double digits of times i've watched it). just entertaining as hell.
positive · AI labelView post →Who thought it wise to host a very public (and expensive) script bake-off between Danny McBride, someone who at the bare minimum will deliver a GI Joe movie where Walt Goggins does funny and/or cool shit, and the guy who wrote American Ultra? That exec needs to be fired.

neutral · AI labelView post →She was great in *American Ultra* (2015), along with Jessie Eisenberg, Topher Grace, and John Leguizamo. A great action film all around.
positive · AI labelView post →And appropriately played the character “Laugher” in the movie “American Ultra” (which is a very enjoyable flick, by the way).
positive · AI labelView post →Unfortunately watching my second Max Landis written movie. American Ultra always seemed so fascinating to me and my curiosity has gotten the best of me

neutral · AI labelView post →The movie American Ultra is not very good, but it still has a queasy sort of fascination because it's based on MKUltra.
negative · AI labelView post →Whats a dumb movie you will stan to the ends of time American Ultra (2015) Very silly spy shenanigans, played for and achieving maximum comic effect. Jesse Eisenberg kills someone with a spoon, and it proceeds from there
positive · AI labelView post →Just watched "American Ultra" with Jesse eisenberg and Kristin Stewart and she kisses him a lot better than he deserves in that movie
negative · AI labelView post →American Ultra What a dumb fun movie. Terrific performances from a few underrated actors (Kristen Stewart, Topher Grace and more) elevated a silly stupid film.

positive · AI labelView post →American Ultra = A+ Every time I've looked at the movie poster over the last year (because that's how long it's been on my DVR) it just screamed D+ to me. I am absolutely stunned by how much I loved this movie.
positive · AI labelView post →I watched American Ultra last night. What a mess of a movie. Another movie where the director didn't know what kind of film he was making so he made all of them.

positive · AI labelView post →she'd be so good! I just watched American Ultra and I was thinking, this movie would be so much better if she just also played Jesse Eisenberg
negative · AI labelView post →I saw American Ultra in a cinema not my local; i had to drive all the way to Bradford to find somewhere screening it because it was a total flop but i like that movie (even if it *is* written by Max Landis) i was first in the theatre; they were playing Octopus' Garden

The Follett is my 1980 pick for the #MyNovelLife challenge. I read some of it on my dinner break. The movie marathon continues with American Ultra.

neutral · AI labelView post →American Ultra is an unreasonably good movie that I've never seen until now.
positive · AI labelView post →One thing 'American Ultra' had working for it as a movie is the understanding of timing. Comedic or otherwise.
positive · AI labelView post →Watching the underrated 'American Ultra' (2015) Jesse Eisenberg is actually not annoying in this movie. AMAZING
positive · AI labelView post →Just watched the 2015 film, American Ultra. The government bad guys were eerily same as ICE in current day. And the guy running the operation was our own H-Gseth!

neutral · AI labelView post →I also somewhat recently saw American Ultra. (2015) It is truly one of the movies of all time. The movie is takes itself a bit too seriously to be a stoner comedy, but tries a bit too much to be a stoner comedy to be taken seriously. Topher Grace makes for a fun villain, though, as an overeager CIA agent seeking to accelerate up the ranks in the dumbest way possible. Walton Goggins also commits to the insane trained killer bit. It's not great, but also not completely terrible. Truly a movie…

neutral · AI labelView post →365 Movie Challenge: Day 154: American Ultra 7/10 I like it when Topher Grace plays a jerk. I like Jesse Eisenberg, but you cant make me believe hes doing all that action. At least they explain why Kristen Stewart's character stayed. I love Walton Goggins, and Tony Hale.(1/2)
positive · AI labelView post →I thought this title card for “American Ultra” was another one of those weird AI-generated previews or a cheap knockoff but then I realized the Prime Video app is just showing me the French version for this one movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →American Ultra was a mixed bag On the plus: Jesse Eisenberg and Kristen Stewart were awesome. The whole cast was good. And most of the movie ruled On the negative, it's a Max Landis script. And they become CIA agents at the end 6/10, not for a lack of trying mind you
neutral · AI labelView post →American Ultra is not fiction. The movie is based on MK Ultra secret experiments by CIA to make unaware people become secret assassins performed by psychiatrists using drugs and hypnosis on victims. MK Ultra was exposed to the public in 1974 by a New York Times investigative report written by journalist Seymour Hersh. The movie itself is a good action comedy about government conspiracy. Under the comedy premise it shows how the MK Ultra program was supposed to be happening. Recommended. Those…

neutral · AI labelView post →My movie character I'm most like is Kristen Stewart *and* Jesse Eisenberg from American Ultra
neutral · AI labelView post →Exciting news that the sex pests behind American Ultra and the worst Hannibal Lecter movie get to have careers again?
negative · AI labelView post →I think American Ultra might be one of the most underrated movies of all time, and I mean objectively not in the "this is slightly better than people think" kind of way. Sub-50 tomatoes on both critic and audience scale. Objectively a "bad movie". But I think it's great. Great cast, great fun.
positive · AI labelView post →I think I would really like American Ultra if it were a good movie
negative · AI labelView post →“American Ultra” (2015) was a flawed, film, but the symbolism when the protagonist fights another mind controlled assassin amongst the abundance of a burning supermarket always haunts me as a symbol of what this modern tech era of billionaire lords and social media serfs has done to American culture
