Movie review - "In Like Flynn" (2018) **

 Why did this get financed? Who was the market? It doesn't have enough action to be an action film. The budget, while decent enough for an Aussie film, wasn't enough for Indiana Jones type adventures. There's no humour. No romance. No sense of adventure.

No differentiated characters - I had trouble telling the leads apart. No stars. I forgot which one was Errol Flynn at times.

He kind of has an ex, played by Isabel Lucas in an astonishingly bland way. There's boxing matches.

David Wenham perks things up as a dodgy mayor. Callan Mulvey hangs around too. Both would have been better as the leads.

A brief moment all these hookers are on the boat and you go "now that's an Errol Flynn film". But this bit lasts two minutes then it's over.

It's so dull. And annoying.

Looks good.
