In this delightful comedy romp, Jon Hamm stars as the roguishly charming and endlessly troublesome Fletch, who becomes the prime suspect in a murder case while searching for a stolen art collection. The only way to prove his innocence? Find out which of the long list of suspects is the culprit - from the eccentric art dealer and a missing playboy to a crazy neighbor and Fletch’s Italian girlfriend. Crime, in fact, has never been this disorganized. (Paramount Pictures)

Initially, it promised to be an intriguing and entertaining ride, but then the humor took a nosedive, transforming into a well-cast yet somewhat silly affair. It's not that the main character wasn't funny; the issue for me was the shift from witty banter to slapstick comedy over time. Witnessing one of the characters clumsily spill a cocktail was the moment I felt my enthusiasm wane. However, I couldn't help but be amused, even thrilled, by the encounter between I.M. Fletcher and Frank Jaffe (a nod to Mad Men fans). Additionally, I developed a fondness for Lorenza Izzo and her charming Italian-English. / Lesson learned: Sometimes, even the ugliest picture may hold unexpected value, so it's worth taking a second look before throwing it away.
