American Ultra
Režie: Nima Nourizadeh
Mike, hulič trávy s nezájmem o cokoli, co se v jeho okolí děje, žije v malém ospalém městečku se svojí přítelkyní Phoebe. Jeho jedinou náplní dne je práce v marketu a obstarání kvalitního „matroše". Nikdy by ho asi nenapadlo, že by mohl řešit mnohem závažnější věci ...až tedy do jedné noci, kdy se u jeho auta objeví neznámí lidé... Mike záhy zjišťuje, že je spícím agentem. K jeho smůle ale agentem určeným k likvidaci. Všichni mu jdou po krku a Mikovi nezbývá nic jiného, než v sobě najít kuráž a začít bojovat. Nakonec to nebude ani tak těžké, všechny schopnosti z výcviku mu zůstaly. Horší to bude se vzpomínkami, ty se mu totiž za tu dobu doslova vykouřily z hlavy.

Hodnocení a recenze American Ultra
- Shaydeknight26. března 2026American Ultra has a clever premise that never quite finds the right tone. It wants to be an action comedy with romantic elements, but for some reason, it can't find the right landing strip. The action is too subdued, it's too straight faced for comedy, and it's too far fetched to function as a romantic story. The result is uneven rather than terrible, but it never really clicks. The biggest problem is Jesse Eisenberg. He can work in very specific roles. He fit well in Zombieland, and he was effective in The Social Network. But this kind of reluctant action lead doesn't suit him in the least. The film asks the audience to believe in sudden bursts of lethal competence, and he never convinces. The same mismatch appeared in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Now You See Me. His screen presence here is out of place, which drains energy from scenes that depend on surprise and escalation. Any action involving him is lame, quite frankly. By contrast, Kristen Stewart is a genuine surprise. She gives the film emotional grounding and handles both the comedy and sincerity well. Every moment she plays feels intentional, and she ends up carrying much of the film. It's a far stronger showing than their previous pairing in Adventureland, which had a similar tonal problem. The supporting cast is mixed. Topher Grace is reliably good and brings some needed energy, though he once again feels underused, he's always the bridesmaid and never the bride. I would have cast hm as the lead. John Leguizamo is odd but effective, making a strange role work through sheer commitment. Connie Britton never quite settles into her part, and her scenes feel flat. Walton Goggins is memorable, though the shattered teeth gag crosses from darkly funny into simply unpleasant and gross. The concept itself is amusing. A stoner sleeper agent suddenly activating has shades of Captain America: The Winter Soldier filtered through a comedy lens, with a touch of The Manchurian Candidate. There are flashes where the film leans into that absurdity and works. But it never commits fully to the comedy, and it never builds convincing action momentum either. There are fun moments scattered throughout, yet the overall impression is drab. It's not a bad film, but it feels like a strong idea diluted by tonal uncertainty and a starring lead that just doesn't fit well. The result is a film that should have been sharper, funnier, and more energetic, but ends up merely passable.
- Mr. D15. července 2025Never heard of it. Surprisingly entertaining. I'd suggest it would be good choice for a sequel. Maybe more.
- Thomas BARIAL17. ledna 2026Middle grade I believe. The scenario is too simple. But at the same time this is what makes this movie fun : it's a bloody bad film as we love 😁.
- NonPlayableContent3. července 2025Without big expectations this is a great movie with a few laughs, like 3.
- Pissed Off Papa28. dubna 2025I don't know what it is about this movie but I just love watching it over and over. Great movie and great cast is all I gotta say. And with a HAPPY ENDING!
- Colin Cottingham22. dubna 2025Great casting. Everybody was suburb. Just was riveted to my screen used commercials for potty breaks. Super flick
- Scott Smith1. března 2025A great movie. The less you know going in, the better. Eisenberg and Stewart were perfect choices for this one. Holds up well for repeated viewing, too. Love this one!
- rposs1425. ledna 2025Fun spin on a classic formula
