Hulu's 'White Men Can't Jump' Remake Falls Short of Original's Magic.

The Hulu remake of the 1992 classic "White Men Can't Jump" fails to capture the original's magic, lacking its own reason for being other than its appeal to baby boomer nostalgia. Directed by Calmatic, the film stars Sinqua Walls and rapper Jack Harlow, who make a credible effort but are hard-pressed to live up to the charisma of Wesley Snipes and Woody Harrelson. The chemistry between the two leads is the key to the film's success, and while the screenplay by Kenya Barris and Doug Hall provides occasional laughs, it ultimately falls short of the original.
