So I set out to watch Beckett when I saw the trailer awhile back. Then I was like I think this is going to be about something much more than what the trailer is giving off. I was right. No I didn't believe the two characters surrounding this story had good believable chemistry but was that really the basis of this film? No! The movie did hold my interest from the moment of the crash to see where this story would go and like another reviewer I did see the resemblance of Breakdown in this film. Again I don't watch movies to dissect them if I'm watching for entertaining purposes. Cinematography details really? I believe some reviewers are looking at Robert and Egert and other professional critics and literally using their opinions in their own reviews. I caught to many similarities. I guess some are using this platform as a portfolio. I didn't catch where the acting was so horrible. However I can say that it's not on a high scale for this type of movie. John David Washington is a very mellow actor. He leads with a personality of a nonchalant attitude and a playful sense of humor that was not needed in this role. Every actor should test their range. And to compare him to his father- Denzel whom in my opinion great actor yes but his range is not exceedingly competitive imo. Overall it's not a bad movie and I didn't regret watching it.
Review of Beckett
Beckett
(2021)
It had an interesting story and it's watchable... the reviews are as always bias.
