Review of Space Jam: A New Legacy (2021) by Sergeantsoz — 19 Jul 2021
I watched the original and the new one back to back and there's no justification for how bad this advertisement of a movie is. The first one is a cult classic and still stands up today despite the bad acting.
Space Jam 2 is just a money grab and another pathetic attempt to make Lebron James the new Michael Jordan. He may wear his number and he may star in Space Jam, but he'll never be MJ. Hes just a wannabe.
This movie is just Warner Brothers patting themselves on the back for 2 hours and Lebron James buttkissing. By the way hes a horrendous actor, much worse than MJ. The plot is a mess. The original is simple.
This one just throws constant references at you at every angle at all times and its distracting. Also Lebron hyping his team up after they're down? Thats out of character for him. He loves to quit on teams midgame and leave them.
If this movie were any accurate, he would have joined the Goon Squad at halftime. I'm not blinded by nostalgia. Its not because I just don't like Lebron James as a person. Its just a bad movie. And I know its for kids but there are dozens of adult references every 5 seconds so I beg to differ.
If they were trying to appeal to fans of the original they failed miserably.
