Space Jam: A New Legacy

It's hard to call something a disappointment if there wasn't much hope for it to begin with.

I found myself struggling to stay awake, having finally gotten in to see the wretched thing...

Space Jam: A New Legacy is an oddly oblivious movie, the kind of studio film that seems halfway aware that it's sort of critiquing a problem its existence also exemplifies.

LeBron has charm to burn ... It's a shame this messy film can't keep pace with his likability or mad skills.

It is a film that has no reason to exist except as a vehicle for reminding people that various pieces of content, all of them merchandisable, are available for instant streaming now.

Thank god for Cheadle, an actor with actual screen presence who's having fun in a role for a film that doesn't deserve his magnetism. But one performance can't save a project that's dug itself that deep a hole.

A lifeless script, amateurish acting and an over dependence on filling the background with familiar extras add up to a losing effort.

I laughed, & some of the gags in here were just a joyous ride!

Children are easy to please with the broad slapstick and general loudness of A New Legacy, but for their adult accompaniments, the second take on a sentimental movie is a chore, especially without Bill Murray.

Space Jam: A New Legacy brings a film meant to be enjoyed by everyone whether you are 12-years-old, a millennial inundated in pop culture, or from an older generation who grew up on WB IPs.
