The Jacket
3 -7-2005

This movie kicked some horrendous ass. It sort of reminds me of JACOBS LADDER. It really wants to make you urinate when you see the guy stuck in the morgue drawer. I worked in a morgue for ten years, and even though the one I worked in resembled a fast food walk-in freezer, this was still brining back memories of getting locked in the freezer. EEEEEEEEEEEK!

The lead guy is the one who played the retard in THE VILLAGE. He’s sort of an anti-hero type. When he goes into the drawer, he freaks, but that emotion transforms him into the future. Doesn’t make sense does it? Well it’s a movie; it’s not supposed to, asshole.

The chick who helps him reminds me of what’s her face (Wynona Ryder) in her early years. That’s just my opinion; I don’t really care what you think. I had a boner just the same. Well - all this back and forth with the future and he’s saving lives, and freaking people out. Kris Kristofferson is in this, and he looks like SHIT. His face looks like a pile of Ass-Lo-Mein. Then there is the chick from FAST TIMES AT RIDGEMONT HIGH (you know the shy slutty girl) well she’s a doctor, and no one cares - least of all me. She’s a retard who electrocutes some little kid to reboot his brain from having seizures. Well it worked. Good for her. He must have been running on Windows. (Obvious bad joke)

Anyway, go see the movie. It’s too fucked up to sit here and try to explain the damn thing. Plus, I waited to fucking long to write this review. But, if you like crazy shit with a good ending and people who cheat death and fuck others peoples shit up with straight jackets, then this is for you. And it’s for you anyway, because I said so.

This movie had NO ass, though there were some guns, and a few hicks in it. DAMN the lead guy has a huge nose, but some chicks think he’s the MAN. Now, I’m not saying you guys should go out and have your nose punched in so it will be huge, and maybe you’ll get girls or something - but hey, you might try it.

This was a rated R movie, which is RARE nowadays. Friggin directors just want to get as many people as possible in the seats, which are understandable, but fuck - not at the expense of the story. This was a good story and rightfully rated. Go see it NOW, and, YES YOU WILL HAVE NIGHTMARES. Sweet.

OVERALL: 7.5
