![]() ![]() Well as an ethnic minority, I’m here to say it does not. Of course, an institutionally racist, sexist, and homophobic sector of entertainment who has only just realised that making films with minority actors actually makes money Hollywood is now throwing black and female actors at said old tat thinking that’ll suffice as an update. ![]() In the same way that we looked down at ’60s and ’70s spy flicks in the ’90s, watching a ’00s aesthetic in 2021 feels like we’re watching old tat. Going from bright and tacky to dark and tough may have seemed like modernising the subgenre back in the late ’90s and early ’00s but it’s now the ’20s for Treadstone’s sake. Hollywood has been churning out spy-slash-assassin movies for decades and after the James Bond era we had the Jason Bourne era more grit and more realism, but even that has become a stale concept. Without Remorse isn’t the worst movie around but the problem is we’ve already seen it. ![]()
