    Apparently, I like stoner action movies. Granted, it’s not quite a genre of its own yet as there are only two I know of: Pineapple Express and, as of this year, American Ultra. The latter is a fun film. Not as wild as Pineapple Express, but still with plenty of wild action and creative fight sequences. It’s been…
