![]() ![]() ![]() Hamm doesn’t need to mimic that, but there’s no interpretation of his own. Not so here, he’s just up to … something.Ĭhase’s talents and instinct for physical comedy played up the character’s ability to fast-talk his way into, and out of, a variety of situations - sometimes with the help of a costume. He is forever obfuscating the truth, and if you know why he’s employing these tactics each step of the way, you’ll buy into them. ![]() He’s wry and unflappable, but there’s supposed to be a moral compass in there somewhere, beneath that self-satisfied exterior. And the newest film doesn’t do the necessary work to introduce - well, reintroduce - who he is: The guy’s a jerk, but he’s our jerk. There was a buoyancy to the original movies, which date from 19, but I’d wager Fletch is a blank slate to a sizable chunk of movie audiences born in the years since. ![]()
