Confess Fletch

Jon Hamm makes a pretty good wise-ass. Not as smug, and ironically not as much of a “ham” as Chevy Chase’s Fletch, but can still mutter wise-cracks under his breath with the best of them. (For a true masterclass of sotto voce wise-crackery check out Christina Applegate in Dead to Me on Netflix.) The plot, involving a murder and some valuable paintings, is foggy. But Fletch’s friendships and interactions are cracking and the mystery skips along at a decent clip. So it’s a fun, lighthearted watch.
