Amazon has done better, and worse, but Jolt ... for the few minutes I've been watching it so far it is so silly and to be completely uninteresting, ... but then it starts to get kind of funny, so watching it for a bit longer.

The premise is this woman, ever since she was a girl had the IED Syndrome ... hahaha, Intermittent Explosive Disorder and gets unrelentingly violent when things bother her, and everything seem to be other her. I can relate.

Anyone seen this so far ... I think it just came out, but maybe it could be of interest?

I have a simple test for movie acceptability:
Are there hot chicks depicted in poses that aid in trial repro shots?

Well, there is Kate Beckinsale parading around in a tight Deep Throat T-shirt.

I liked that t-shirt. It looked so good on her.

Oh god ... I'm starting to like this movie ... there is a lot of comedy in it about how other people tick us off. Let's see where it goes.

This movie reminds me a little of the movie "Limitless" in its reckless slap-stick style.

It's more like Boss Level.

Jolt > The Tomorrow War.

[–] brux (14840) 4 years ago

At least Jolt was so ridiculous it was funny, and made fun of itself.

This w
as good, silly fun
There's some comedy and several good fight scenes, not a lot of brains but a ton of style

A good 'junk' movie for when you don't want to ponder very much

"A good 'junk' movie for when you don't want to ponder very much"

Except 99% of movies are exactly that. Brainless junk. You act like it's a rarity, some sort of relief valve for our over-intellectual society.

[–] CrabgrassWilly (1616) 3 years ago

I do not agree to disagree. So there.

[–] ShogunofYonkers (78598) 3 years ago

I disagree with your disagreeing to agree!

[–] CrabgrassWilly (1616) 3 years ago

Then I agree to your agreement to disagree. Agreed?

[–] ShogunofYonkers (78598) 3 years ago

I'm confused lol

[–] 123Guy (7840) 3 years ago

Maybe even more. ;-)

I wonder if the heart of all this is the modern generation's acceptance of shit?
Shit movies, shit filler podcasts, shit radio, shit politics, shit education... etc. It's all they'll get, so it all they know, and accept it as normal?
Good forbid they look slightly too the past for higher quality stories, because the effects are dated, or actors are not fresh enough. Oh well. Their loss.

That's how brainwashing propaganda works.

People inundated with crap only know crap, and so they begin to grade on a level of ultra terrible crap to just crap.

With each new generation they will begin to accept more and more crap because that's all they'll be fed.

I just hope it gives similar (6 stone) women the (crazy) notion that they can beat up men thrice their size (with predictable results)

Hipster-shit movies like this, may drain the feminazi swamp quicker than any governmental legislation ever could?
