White Men Can't Jump (2023)
No chance!
Watched it only for the name, hoping for a surprise but.... Some movies should remain one, no remakes, no continuity, no more parts or whatever...
Original with Snipes and Harrelson is a great movie. 30 years later I will vote for the original any time.
The remake is missing the spirit of the original. I was disappointed watching it.
It even missed real basketball hustle, lacked proper "modern" basketball scenes, plays, etc. It would have been beneficial if some basketball players were thrown in, for color, for skills...in the end its a basketball movie.
The play of the main characters was also not noticeable but trying to fill the shoes of the originals is impossible!!!
The Infernal Machine (2022)
Thought
A bit slow at moments but kept suspense and tension to very end. The first 20-30 minutes are crucial as audience might get a bit bored from slower play but movie surely deserves a chances to be watched until the end.
Guy Pearce plays big role into the movie and most of the audience (I did too) watched movie because of him. It seemed that the character was designed especially for him.
Unexpected twist and made audience guessing. At one point I thought it might have something in common with Johny Depp's "Secret Window".
Some scenes could have been skipped or moved faster and could have been good to show the outcome with Saul.
Don't Look Up (2021)
How come...
Cant believe high class actors agreed to make this parody of a film...
I personally did not find any satire or funny moments, total lack of everything.
Just speechless how bad it was.
DiCaprio as usual very good performance but overall movie is 0.5, even 1 is high for it.
