Jess Plus None |
Jess Plus None is a formulaic and predictable story of a trainwreck of a person with no concept of boundaries attending a wedding at a campground. The title character — I wouldn’t really say “protagonist” — has no discernible redeeming qualities. Throw in a few clichés, umm, I mean other characters, with Jess holding up a metaphorical mirror so they can see that they’re all broken, too, so they can all learn some Valuable Life Lessons, with a little gratuitous, culturally appropriative Native American spirituality thrown in as an afterthought. And with the exception of a precious few moments, it’s not even funny. Truly a movie that should not have been made. NOT recommended.
