J (February)


J is for Jump. “Veering between biopic and dystopian-spoof, this latest addition to the Trump Loyal craze (‘The Lady Is A Trump’, ‘Donald! Duck!’) disgraces itself gracefully, in keeping with the jeu d’esprit of the genre. Fake news of a nuclear scare on 5th Avenue is juxtaposed with halcyon days of February Seventeen, when Bannon (Sean Penn) was still 45’s BF. K is for Kafkaesque, as in alternating sequences we travel down 45(Gene Wilder brought back from the dead)’s cerebral cortex towards an ‘overwhelming question’ (Eliot): who are all these Unlikes on my Timeline? Get them out of my Face!”
