American Ultra is just good old violent fun, showcasing Jesse Eisenberg as a stoner living in a nowhere town who doesn’t know he is actually a super spy, aka Jason Bourne. When “activated,” it turns out he is an efficient soldier, who can kill people with spoons and the like. Eisenberg is paired again with his Adventureland co-star Kristen Stewart, who plays his GF, and the two just have a blast ripping through the movie.
I discuss American Ultra with my ScreenPicks gang, along with other openers including She’s Funny That Way and Learning to Drive.
