User Reviews: 

It's fun too watch for a few good laughs if you got nothing better to do.

It's not on the level of Pineapple Express and I have to say American Ultra could have used the talent from Pineapple Express to make a better stoner action Drama.

I liked Jesse Eisenberg's last attempt at the action comedy that was 30 minutes or less and of course his take in Zombie land. This movie made me realize that I'm actually not that big of a fan of what Eisenberg is about. It's like watching Woody Allen as John McClain.

But overall, it's stupid in the good way. The type of movie you want to watch while stoned out of your mind, it's designed for that type of thing.

Definitely a cool concept that's fun watch.
