Handsome A Netflix Mystery Movie Movie Review 2. The Netflix mystery movie Handsome begins by removing any possibility of mystery Stephen Weber emerges from a swimming pool and announces, Hello, Im Stephen Weber. I play the murderer in this Handsome Mystery Movie. Enjoy this exciting, multi platform event. Said event is directed and co written by Jeff Garlin, perhaps still best known for playing Larry Davids manager on Curb Your Enthusiasm. Garlin also plays the main character, Gene Handsome, a Los Angeles detective whos burning off the days left before retirement when the severed head of a neighbors babysitter ends up on the front lawn of Webers character, former movie star Talbert Bacom, a vain twit.

Having announced in its very first scene that it isnt hung up on being a traditional mystery, Handsome goes on to prove that its not all that interested in being a coherent movie, either. Its more of a loose assortment of scenes of Los Angelenos hanging out and talking that occasionally remembers to move its plot along. Groove Squad Movie Trailers' title='Groove Squad Movie Trailers' />The detectives investigation is a pretext to set up the next scene between him and an eccentric character who might or might not have anything to do with the investigationusually not. Meanwhile, Ben Folds sprightly score chugs along underneath the action, its instrumentation evoking such laid back fare as Midnight Run and TVs The Rockford Files. Theres a somewhat intriguing not quite romantic chemistry between Handsome and the babysitters former employer, a dental assistant named Nora Christine Woods, and a lot of cheap jokes at the expense of Handsomes oversexed partner, Fleur Scozzari Natasha Lyonne, who isnt above asking a suspect out on a date. There are a couple of sharp scenes between Handsome and the coroner, Lester William Stanford Davis, and a funny bit where a bus full of tourists checking out the sites of infamous Hollywood crimes just happens to be driving by the scene of the babysitters murder and decides to add a stop. But much of the films running time consists of scenes of Handsome simply going about his routine. He walks his doga part great Dane, part dalmatian, from appearancesand gets in an argument with a neighbor, a former detective named Durante Eddie Pepitone, about whether some poop on Lesters lawn was her doing. Midway through the scene, Durantes wife Esta Leah Remini comes outside, warns against assuming that this is a good evening, then begins playing the accordion. Later in the movie theres a scene where Handsome gets some burgers from a drive thru place and tells the fast food worker, a born again Christian, that hes going to quit eating junk after this. The teenager congratulates him for taking a step toward becoming his best self. Advertisement. You used to see more of these kinds of independent films being made twenty years ago, when there was still a exhibition market for them. Ribbit The Movie High Quality. Now theyve either moved to streaming services or else they do a brief run on the festival circuit and end up there. Theyre mainly interesting as venues where performers who are typecast for doing one thing can break loose and do something else, if only for a scene or two. The problem with Handsome is that it never quite finds a groove, and it seems only halfheartedly interested in some of the different modes its trying on for size. It doesnt entirely commit to being an anti mystery though there are hints early on that itll be like the series Colombo, where you knew who did it from the very beginning and the story was all about the investigation. It doesnt really commit to being a spoof of hardboiled crime fiction or cop movies, either, although there are enough broad characters and situations that dont land including a few crass and dumb ones where Handsomes superior officer, played by Amy Sedaris, sexually harasses him to make you think its on the verge of turning into a Police Squad type parody. The best scenes are ones that seem free of any generic obligationwhere were just observing people in their natural habitats. These scenes make me wonder if Garlin didnt miss his true calling. All of his films work a certain amount of absurd and acerbic humor into their stories, and sometimes a strained madcap quality as well, but the quieter, more realistic interactions are the ones that land. Theres an extended scene towards the middle of the film where Handsome and Nora sit on a couch in Noras house and talk about their dreams for the future thats sincere and, towards the end, wrenching. You can tell that the actors had a moment and genuinely moved each other. No joke it reminded me of something out of a Mike Leigh film. I wouldnt mind an entire Jeff Garlin film comprised mostly of scenes like that, with occasional interludes to let Garlin lavish affection on a dog whos nearly as big as he is.
