Jacob C.I.S.

About This Movie

So, 'Jacob C.I.S.' from 1997 is an interesting piece. It has this gritty tone that really pulls you into the action. The pacing is a bit uneven but it kind of adds to the feeling of chaos that the film tries to evoke. I mean, the practical effects are something else—realistic explosions and stunts that you just don't see much of anymore. The performances? Well, they have their moments, but there's a certain rawness that feels genuine. It’s distinctive, for sure. There’s this underlying theme of survival and moral ambiguity that you can't help but appreciate. It's not polished, but it has a character all its own. Worth a look if you’re into that kind of vibe.
