Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

Jackpot! (2024)

Under the lottery rules in near-future L.A., anyone who kills a newly-announced winner before sundown will be awarded the money instead. Katie is unaware of this rule when she arrives in L.A., so is completely confused when she suddenly finds herself dodging multiple attacks after her win. Luckily Noel (John Cena) arrives to help her survive for a small percentage of the jackpot.

Great idea. Just OK script and execution. I bumped up the score a bit because I have an unaccountable crush on MGK.
