... aside from plot, screenplay, dialogue, acting, editing, comic timing, casting, cinematography, directing, music, and the woke.
Chevy Chase was made for this character back in the day. His brisk confident speaking voice; his dry wit and natural comic timing, along with the music used in the film and the humorous direction. Ryan Reynolds reminds me a lot of Chase and probably would have been better cast for this role.
Oh, how I miss the seventies, eighties and nineties movies. You know, when the camera was a character and had a point of view? When the camera aided the telling of the story. And wasn't just used to point at and record the actors. Why must every second streaming film now visually resemble a documentary? And what's with the flat colour correction on the film? The whole thing looks washed out and indoor scenes are much too dull. Visually, the film looks depressing and that absolutely took from the comedy the film was aiming for.
Script-wise why is the writer/director obsessed with skin colour? Randomly throwing in woke speak where it doesn't belong. Such self-conscious dialogue does not belong in a Fletch film. Fletch's whole character is supposed to be about sarcasm, and a Fletch film, levity.
