Śledztwo Spensera

A properly filled-in plot template that’s entertaining, especially thanks to its characters. With its good villain(s), one dramatic moment and one joke that will make you laugh out loud, Spenser Confidential is fine a diversion, better than you would have expected. (17.04.2021)

I expected an average buddy comedy and in the end I was truly satisfied. Strange as it may sound, Mark Wahlberg and Winston Duke are a good fit. In addition, it features the legendary Alan Arkin and is pleasantly face-paced. It contains just the right amount of humor and action, which some may find too scarce, but it worked for me as a whole. Such films are rare today. Of course it could be compared to older, now legendary pieces, but why would I do it when I enjoyed it just the way it is? (01.04.2020)

Pretty decent police crime drama, but the whole film feels like hand down, Peter Berg can definitely make better films. Mark Wahlberg is as solid as ever, there’s some occasional humour and the action scene in the restaurant is fine, but unfortunately the film is primarily a drama rather than action or thriller, but entertaining enough not to get boring. Action**, Story***, Violence>No, Humor ***, Entertainment ***. 6/10 (09.03.2020)

A serene (naive) old-fashioned crime movie with well-acted characters and perfect action. Berg and WahlBerg quickly put together this Boston-style Jack Reacher for Netflix and with great verve. Although the shaky screenplay is a little disappointing, Spenser gives us a generous portion of good mood. (13.04.2020)

A buddy movie from a director who lived it. Berg is otherwise a class better action filmmaker and has more dynamism in most of his films. It strikes me as very similar to when Michael Bay stopped doing what he could do and started experimenting with stuff like Pain and Gain. The funniest is Pearl and the foul mouthed Iliza Shlesinger.
