Cactus Jack (2022)
4/10
Wasted Potential
9 June 2021
Cactus Jack is a complete waste of potential, and I wish it did wasn't. The film centers around what some would envision the average 4chan user to be, spewing his hateful rhetoric until it leads to a really powerful moment showing his mother screaming at him and berating him and it shows the trauma and the influences on him that gave him such twisted views, the moment is powerful, the specific hand movements he does, it shows a broken man trying not to snap and after this scene it goes downhill. The movie contains two clear ideas for a movie a dramatic portrayal of a man with mental illness and hateful views and a weird over the top exploitation flick both I find entertaining in their own different respected ways but put together they clash and undermine each other, I give Cactus Jack a final, 4/10.
