Love Jacked

The only thing jacked here is the hour and a half wasted watching this film.

The chemistry is never there between Anderson and West, probably because the latter is stuck trying to make sense of a character written to repel sensible people and decisions. West makes a valiant effort.

Love Jacked is a wonderful showcase for Shamier Anderson as Malcolm. I haven't seen star power and chemistry like this on-screen since Diana Ross and Billy Dee Williams in Lady Sings The Blues.

It's pretty, but lacking in personality. And that's not enough to build even a forced relationship with an audience.

It reinforces social tropes we could easily live without.

A romcom trifle that's asks nothing and gives less.

Uninspired, but not altogether unlikable, the Canadian, high concept romantic comedy Love Jacked has its heart in the right place, but holds zero surprises and only a handful of moderate chuckles.

'Love Jacked' definitely highlights the benefits of creating change in one's life.
