Nash Bridges

It could have worked if Cheech & Don were mentoring their children who were cops, the same way that James Gammon (Nick Bridges) did in the original series. In 2000, Cheech & Don were already too old for their roles. But now, 71 and 75 year old cops are patently rediculous!

Don Johnson definitely has something to deliver in a media role as the cool old guy. But Nash Bridges is no longer that role -- unless he plays an undercover investigator cracking down on senior citizen abuse by the professional guardianship cartel.

This movie checked all the boxes for inclusiveness but none for entertainment. About as far from the original as you could get. The woke society must think it's great.

I was really hoping to see a remake of this series as the original was one of my all time favorites. As far as the characters go it was great. What I did not appreciate were the gaping plot holes. I'm sure there was more to this that was cut out to fit a time slot. If this had been split into two 2-hour shows it would have worked a lot better. The parts that were missing would have made the whole story work better. It's hard to get into something when you get lost in the first 30 minutes.

People need to lighten up. So what if Don is 70+. It feels like a long episode of Nash bridges. Nothing too sophisticated just a mysterious police case to be solved. And lots of nostalgia from Nash and his partner. Overall a nice watch.

... since I am one. And, believe it or not, all of us started out as children. Plus, if anyone has earned the right to take back this role, even if only for a sparkly 90 minutes, it would be Johnson. Who practically invented a character we now take for granted in series after series, and movie after movie. (Just like 86 year old Bob Joyce, who astonishingly still has most of his vocal range, has earned the right to sing Elvis songs whenever he darn well wishes). Viewers hoping for Citizen Kane will be disappointed. Fans looking for solid nostalgia will love this film. To date, however, the best recycling of once top-tier talent remains Jackie Chan's The Foreigner (2017). A truly astonishing film.
