Review of Be Cool (2005) by Laurence C — 06 Oct 2009
Be Cool has its moments, yes. It also incidentally has everything that makes a satire fall limp in-between those moments. People, this is not a disaster by any means, but please don't be lured by that impressive cast and the promise of a continuation to the largely superior Get Shorty.
Its script is shaky and full of underdeveloped characters, and the plot points revolving around how miraculously talented Christina Milian's character are thoroughly artificial and absolutely ridiculous.
Travolta and Thurman do just fine, though, and Cedric the Entertainer and The Rock make for solid supporting turns. But this overlong, toothless, phony action-comedy is nothing to write home about.
