Viewed 2/19/23 at South Point Casino Cinema, Las Vegas with Fran
IMBd: 5.8/10
RT Critic: 23 Audience: 37
Critic's Consensus: Liam Neeson isn't necessarily a bad fit for the classic character, but Marlowe fails to make a case for itself as either a worthwhile franchise extension or a fun mystery in its own right
Cag: 4 Liked it quite well
Liam Neeson, Diane Kruger, Jessica Lange
My comments: Of the three movies I saw this week with Fran, I liked this the least....though I still found it thoroughly entertaining. Love Liam Neeson. Loved the 30s setting and all the fancy sets and costumes.
RT Summary: MARLOWE, a gripping noir crime thriller set in late 1930’s Bay City, centers around a brooding, down on his luck detective; Philip Marlowe, played by Liam Neeson, who is hired to find the ex-lover of a glamorous heiress (Diane Kruger), daughter of a well-known movie star (Jessica Lange). The disappearance is the first twist in a series of bewildering events, and soon Marlowe is embroiled in a deadly investigation and web of lies that he’s determined to bring to light.
