Synopsis

Spoiler shield

In the near future, a 'Grand Lottery' has been established - the catch: kill the winner before sundown to legally claim their multi-billion dollar jackpot. When Katie Kim mistakenly finds herself with the winning ticket, she reluctantly joins forces with amateur lottery protection agent Noel Cassidy who must get her to sundown in exchange for a piece of her prize.

FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://movieswetextedabout.com/jackpot-review-a-carefree-blend-of-absurdity-action-and-humor/ "Jackpot! is a movie that delivers on its promise: pure, dumb entertainment. Without any pretensions of becoming a memorable film or delving into complex themes, Paul Feig delivers a light, admittedly silly experience, with a charismatic cast that stands out for its comedic delivery. It’s a safe choice for anyone looking for a carefree evening of fun, full of action and humor, without the need to reflect too much on sociopolitical topics. While it may not be a movie that stays in memory, it serves its purpose effectively, making it a recommended option for fans of easygoing action comedies." Rating: B-

I love no other actor more than Awkwafina. She is the best. However this movie makes me think maybe she isn't the best. It's a shitty, loud, beat-em-up movie. If it were up to simply this movie and I had to decide greatest actor, I might say Cena over Fina. But since there are a litany of amazing Awkwafina performances, we know she's better. It just kind of sucks. But Fina and Cena are adorbs. So it's better than it would be. I love TMNT. This movie is kind of custom made for me so I did enjoy it. A little long.
