Trigger Warning

Jessica Alba's career managers should be fired. Netflix should fire the entire team responsible for choosing film scripts. Not even the worst North Korean B-movie screenwriter would write a script like that. And I didn't even mention the technical team And director, etc.. The action scenes are so poorly done that they wouldn't even be used in Rambo. Poor visual and sound effects. The editing does not follow the continuity. Many points were not clarified. Anyway, don't waste your time. Poor Jessica, who didn't see the light of day this time, remains in the darkness of Hollywood's second echelon.

First, J Lo. Now, Jessica Alba, too.

I love J Lo and I love Jessica Alba. But, wow, they have signed on to really bad movies for Netflix.

I think Alba's at her best in romantic comedies. Action films, not so much. But I think it's not entirely her fault - the projects she's signed onto in the past few years have had poor writing, production value, and directing.

Alba's not that old, so she can still do romantic comedies. I really wish she would go back to that. Ok, I understand if she wants to expand her range. But then she really needs better projects to sink her teeth and talent into.

As for "Trigger Warning", it's entirely forgettable and I could hardly make it through the entire runtime. I'm all for strong female characters when the writing is good - think "Blue Eye Samurai". Sadly, we didn't get one here.

Another movie from the Netflix bargain table. If you switch off your mind, it is still reasonably entertaining. Some of the fight scenes are well realized. But on the whole, in my opinion, the production is only mediocre. The thin story is predictable and you can save yourself the last quarter of an hour, there are no more surprises. In terms of acting, the whole thing is pretty mixed to very bad. So this movie fits in with the typical Netflix productions. It's not about quality but about content. If it goes on like this, I'll have to cancel my Netflix subscription too. If you have nothing else to do, you can watch the movie, but don't expect too much.

How easy is it to actually sell a script to Netflix?

Take a look at Trigger Warning and you'll know. The script is incredibly bad and full of bad cliches. The director is absolutely out of her depth with everything, but worst of all with the action scenes. Even Jessica Alba can't save this lousy movie, but that seems to be her fault. According to the motto: Take the money and run. Too bad, because Alba is a really great actress. Just not in Trigger Warning. If you want to get upset about a badly made movie, then watch Trigger Warning.

And to the people at Netflix, just fire the entire script department, if you have one at all.

Jessica Alba undoubtedly possesses the qualities needed to shine as an action star. Her performance is comparable to Jennifer Lopez in "The Mother" and Gal Gadot in "Heart of Stone" where both actresses showcase substantial talent. However, much like them, she is hampered by a poorly written script that fails to support her or any of the other cast members effectively. This recurring issue not only diminishes her potential impact but also the overall quality of the production, leaving much to be desired from what could otherwise be standout roles. It's just watchable on a rainy day when you don't have any other movie to turn to.
