Be
Cool
Cert: 12A
Starring: John Travolta, Uma Thurman, Danny DeVito,
Vince Vaughn, Dwayne Johnson
Director: F. Gary Gray
Running Time: 119 minutes
Released:
1st April

 John Travolta returns as Chili Palmer
in Be Cool, a sequel to the original comedy Get Shorty. In Be Cool
(based on the novel by Elmore Leonard), Chili abandons the fickle
movie business to bring his signature brand of wise-guy skills
and negotiation tactics to the music industry.
The reviews Be Cool has received Stateside have been decidedly
mixed, with one publication deeming it a ‘hip, kitsch and
star-studded stroke of genius’, whilst on the flip-side,
another somewhat disag-reed, referring to it as ‘the kind
of sequel that gives sequels a bad name.’ The multitude of
talent fronting the film should no doubt guarantee it a good innings
at the box office, although the film’s director will sadly
be unable to reap any productive benefits – he died of a
heroin overdose shortly after filming was completed. |
