Sick of the examinations he underwent as a child and the interest of the government and medical establishment in his power, he lies low under an assumed name in Vegas, performing cheap tricks and living off small-time gambling "winnings." But when a terrorist group threatens to detonate a nuclear device in Los Angeles, government agent Callie Ferris must use all her wiles to capture Cris and convince him to help her stop the cataclysm.

I've been watching movies that I've never seen that other people suggest. I skipped over this because it looked dumb, but I'll be honest... it isn't bad. I'm only 1/3 of the way through.

It's over now. Strange movie, but I didn't hate it. And I just realized that's where this meme came to be.

He never has bird hair in the movie, but he wore that jacket and shirt through the closing sequence, and his hair looks similar enough to make me think of the meme.

I wouldn't have thought it looked like a bird prior to the meme though. What came first, the chicken or the egg?

I liked this movie enough that I've watched it a couple of times. Jessica Biel never disappoints either.

She's a great reason to re-watch Blade Trinity. Holy shit was she even more gorgeous in her youth. And the new Total Recall also worked for her. Shit, the new Total Recall was 14 years ago. Blade was 20. Oh well.
