Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I was planning to go to a theater to watch this movie but, with the lock down in place, I had to rent it instead. I did not expect a masterpiece - I thought it would be a flick along the lines of Obamaland and Idiocracy filled with human caricatures. But there was no comparison. Even though I do not have the stomach for gore and cruelty anymore, I really enjoyed it. The plot was not formulaic and completely unpredictable. It never really slowed down so I sat glued to the screen until the end. The conversations were short but idiomatic and there was a lot that could be unpacked. The characters were pretty well-developed for such a fast-paced action movie - I really got a feel for them. The acting was first-rate. I should mention that Betty Gilpin was magnificent. She was the archetype of a Real American Girl. She was beautiful, smart, independent, resourceful, fearless, strong yet compassionate and down-to-earth, unlike the wealthy psychopaths possessed by political correctness and postmodern ideology. The way she told the story about Jack Rabbit and Box Turtle took my breath away. I would give her an Oscar for Best Actress without hesitation, if that award still meant anything.
