The Jackal Ratings & Reviews
- PapaHamzehFebruary 23, 2025This was, surprisingly, one of the worst movies I have seen in a long time. It was cool to see Jack Black and Bruce Willis test out weapons, though.
- tellumMarch 11, 2026This was one of those movies I saw a lot because cable syndicated it, and seeing Bruce play against type as a weird crazy villain was both interesting and bizarre.
- Kaan ArlıFebruary 3, 2026One of the best movies of Bruce Willis and I feel so sorry that he doesn't remember being a world class actor anymore
