Movie remakes are inevitable, sure, but this contemporary update of Dudley Moore’s huggable drunken playboy seems to serve as a chronicle of Russell Brand’s transition from drug-addled TV presenter to Katy Perry’s husband. We’re glad Brand’s demons are part of his past, but we’re beginning to sense that his boundary-pushing days are behind him as well. Perhaps he’s a modern day Robin Williams, and Jack remake is in the cards for the comedian? In the post-Red era, however, we’re looking forward to Mirren’s brand of royal comedy.
