A NEW Netflix movie starring Jessica Alba has caught the attention of viewers, but for all the wrong reasons.
Netflix action revenge movie Trigger Warning features Jessica Alba as special forces commando Parker. Fresh from mourning the loss of her father and returning home to her small US town, it's not long before action scenes take place and kick off the 106-minute movie.

Despite being heavily hyped up on Netflix, the movie has failed to be a hit with viewers.
Whilst it's currently sitting at the top of the movie charts fresh after its release on Friday, the feedback from viewers has seen it labelled as 'dreadful' and 'unable to finish it'.
Putin accused of surrounding himself with same 'actors' at series of eventsOne disappointed viewer wrote on social media: "I was truly shocked that Alba chose this movie as her comeback vehicle. Pathetic dialogue, poor acting, bad action scenes, boring pace…"
Another shared: "We literally couldn’t finish it because it was so awful. 45 minutes in we decided we would rather watch paint dry and switched to something else."
"Watching Trigger Warning. Damn … it’s bad, so bad … I love female lead action movies, Jessica Alba is beautiful , but this is just cringe," said another.
A fourth wrote: "Jessica Alba’s amazing action chops were wasted in Trigger Warning. More of her please but in better movies."
Another added: "Wow, Jessica Alba stars in the worse [sic] movie Lifetime forgot to make. Trigger Warning was dreadful."
On film rating website Rotten Tomatoes, the movie has only earned a measly 25% rating from 24 critics with the audience score even lower at just 16%.
Jessica Alba started her acting career with roles in TV shows such as Dark Angel and L.A.'s Finest, before transitioning to feature films.
In 2003 she starred as the lead role in dance rom-com Honey, before taking on roles in films such as 2005’s Fantastic Four and graphic novel inspired movie Sin City.
Outside of acting, Jessica is married to Cash Warren. The couple share three children together; Honor Marie, born in June 2008, and Haven Garner born in August 2011, and a son, Hayes, born in December 2017.
