Bad News Bears Reviews

During the last few days,  I have been watching the ‘Before’ trilogy directed by Richard Linklater, I really love the damned thing and it must be some of his best work. Eventually, even though he spent most of his career releasing some indie features, he did flirt a couple of time with the mainstream and this production was one of those few mainstream features he has made so far. To be honest, I have actually never seen the original version so I have absolutely no idea if this remake was faithful or not but I really have my doubts that it really required to be remade at all. Anyway, all in all, I thought it was actually a decent watch. Indeed, I always had a weak spot for Billy Bob Thornton and the guy was pretty funny here. I have to admit that, back in those days, he was pretty much doing his ‘Bad Santa’ character  again and again and it was getting a little bit repetitive. A a part from that, this movie was not bad but not great either and the plot was really generic and fairly predictable. To conclude, even though the whole thing was fairly average, I still think it was not bad but don’t expect much before watching the damned thing.
