Overview
Take the money and run.
In the near future, a 'Grand Lottery' has been established - the catch: kill the winner before sundown to legally claim their multi-billion dollar jackpot. When Katie Kim mistakenly finds herself with the winning ticket, she reluctantly joins forces with amateur lottery protection agent Noel Cassidy who must get her to sundown in exchange for a piece of her prize.
Review
Jackpot!
What happens if The Purge is a comedy? Jackpot is the kind of stupid humor we all need, but at the core it’s an allegory about Hollywood as a whole. Silly but smart. I dig it.
