Review of King Jack

King Jack (2015)
2/10
Too many plot holes
22 November 2016
Warning: Spoilers
SPOILER ALERTS: I will give the movie one bit of credit: The acting of the lead character is good. Other than that, the plot is not worth the time to watch. Not one character is this movie is believable, the mother is incompetent,(her son gets beat up so bad that he ends up in the hospital and she is OK that he doesn't want to talk about it); the older brother is a born loser; the bullies are sociopaths; the girls are foul-mouthed, dirty-minded ding bats; and the main character is a masochist. He defaces the bully's garage in daylight no less, and then gets beat up; he calls his tormentors foul names and gets beat up; he hits his tormentor with a rock and gets beat up; he texts a girl a picture of his privates and is surprised when she shares it with others. Then he turns coward when his smaller cousin gets abused. The description of the movie is the boy is bullied. No: he is assaulted, assaulted with a deadly weapon, the young boy is kidnapped with unlawful restraint and at no time does anyone call the police or file charges. These acts go way beyond bullying: these are felony acts that would put the tormentors away for a long time. And at the end we are suppose to believe that there is a small act of redemption. The only believable person in the whole movie is the small cousin and he has such a small role. Well if one wants to spend 80 minutes watching a kid get beat up, and hearing kids use the F bomb over and over. Be my guest. By the way, where in the heck are the parents of all these teenagers? Do they not exist?
