“It owes the canon nothing.”
The movie pursues immediacy and audience pleasure without begging institutions to certify its worth.

Court is in session
Put Confess, Fletch on trial.
Two incompatible taste archetypes. One film. Read the arguments, then issue a completely binding cultural ruling.

“Easy pleasure, short half-life.”
It moves efficiently through the moment but offers little reason to keep arguing once the credits end.
