Release Date February 18th, 2022
While Bruce Willis gets most of the attention for his late career paycheck cheapies, John Cusack has been toiling away on the same easy paycheck circuit. Cusack’s recent resume may not be as stunningly inept and lazy as Willis’s output, but it is nearly as disreputable. As evidence I present to you the scuzzy new action thriller, Pursuit. The film stars the ever less reputable Emile Hirsch and someone named Jake Manley with Cusack seemingly allowing a film crew to capture scenes of him puttering around his house to include in the movie.
Pursuit stars Emile Hirsch as gangster-hacker Rick Calloway. Rick’s wife has gone missing and using the dark web, Rick is unraveling the criminal enterprise that is hiding and torturing her for the sadistic purpose of antagonizing Rick. In his pursuit of the truth, Rick tracks down a drug dealer who happens to be the subject of a sting by undercover NYPD Detectives. Unknowingly interrupting the bust, Rick kills several people and injures a pair of cops including Detective Mike Breslin played by Jake Manley.
