Review of Be Cool (2005) by John . — 15 Jun 2008
Very disappointing is the best way to describe Be Cool. Had this been a standalone film and not the follow up to Get Shorty I might have viewed it differently. There are just too many scenes that I felt like I had already watched in Get Shorty.
For example early in the movie Chili needs a hire car, he requests a Cadillac and is presented with the Cadillac of hybrids. In Get Shorty it was the Cadillac of mini vans. One of the many memorable scenes from Pulp Fiction was John Travolta and Uma Thurman dancing, this also has the two of them dancing.
Why? I can only think that they were trying too hard to make this film cool but had a lack of original ideas. Watch Get Shorty and avoid Be Cool.
