Watching Space Jam: A New Legacy is exactly how I imagine experiencing the nine circles of Dante's Inferno would be like, a seemingly endless advertisement for Warner Bros, whilst the remnants of your childhood melt away in painful, screaming agony. Remember how much fun you had back in the 90s with the original Space Jam? Yeah? Fuck you. Here's a violent barrage of quidditch, Matrix jokes, and cool video game lingo, whilst Porky Pig raps in your dumb faces, you dumb bastards.

Look, I know this is a film for kids, but honestly, the kids deserve better. At least Don Cheadle seems like he had fun. Good for him. Good. For. Him.

I fully agree, I watched this and was completely disappointed!

The second half of the movie was WB having everyone dress up in dodgy fancy dress costumes of popular WB owned characters. The heart of the franchise was ripped out and its soul sent to hell (located in the WB basement) I just try to ignore its existence.

Fantastically Enjoyable Heist Movie
Danny Ocean (Clooney) is released from jail on parole, and heads straight off to rob the un-robbable : not one, but three Vegas casinos. The casinos are, of course, owned by the nastiest bloke in town (Garcia), who coincidentaly - or maybe not - is the new man-in-the-life of Clooney's ex-wife (Roberts).

Clever plot, nicely done.

Clooney, Pitt, Damon and Garcia are excellent, as usual. Highly dubious British accent from Don Cheadle, but y'know were 'e's comin' from.
And you know where this film is going, right from the start. There are no surprises, but who cares?

Lacks the Rat Pack charisma of the original for purists, but has enough merit to stand on it's own and should be enjoyed as an 'also' rather than an 'instead of'.
