Jolt

It's worth watching if you're a fan of Kate because she's beautiful in this film. The film itself is just ok.

If you liked her in Underworld you will like her it Jolt, simple as that. If you didn't, avoid this, you won't like it.

She basically is just the same in this as in all her Underworld movies and I loved her in all of those. There is not much of a story and it really is a bit farcical, but I was entertained and enjoyed it just for Kate. The addition of Stanley Tucci is a real bonus, he never disappoints. Jai Courtney is OK, but not being a big fan of his, I never really rate him in a movie, this is no exception. Gotta love Bobby Cannavale, he is always fun.

So the end result is, if you like Kate Beckinsale, you will like this, forget all the negative reviews, just enjoy a bit of nonsensical fun.

5.5/10 for me, rated it a 6 as there is no half way.

It's a semi-dark, action comedy with an incredibly sexy leading actress. So wtf do the uptight prudes who dissed this film expect? If you're going to give this film a go do it with an open mind, without expectations, and it might keep you pleasantly occupied for 90 minutes or so.

Not exactly high art but enjoyable and doesn't take itself seriously.

Jolt tries pretty hard to be Crank, Atomic Blonde, and John Wick, but it ends up falling short in most key areas such as poor directing and writing, a plot that could've been quite interesting but ended up being a overcomplicated mess, action scenes ruined by weak choreography and too much quick-edits, and mediocre performances.

There are a few redeeming qualities though such as decent cinematography, some cool music, fast pacing, and a pretty good cast lineup.

Overall, this was just another bland, generic, and overall forgettable action flick, and I wouldn't really recommend it unless you just wanna burn off 91 minutes of your time & got nothing better to do.
