Review of The Beach Bum (2019) by A.o. Scott for The New York Times — 28 Mar 2019
What The Beach Bum celebrates as transgression is pure tedium. What it takes for divine lunacy is frat house doggerel. The booze flows freely. The women are topless and ornamental. The cars and boats are fast and expensive.
There’s nothing much worth writing about.
