‘Angel and the Badman’ Review: Zachary Levi Leads New Remake
Key Takeaways
- Zachary Levi stars in the Angel Studios remake of 'Angel and the Badman'.
- The film is directed by Julio Quintana and features Tommy Lee Jones.
- Critics note the adaptation trades traditional western excitement for added piousness.
Julio Quintana's recent adaptation of 'Angel and the Badman' brings Zachary Levi into the boots of the classic John Wayne western role. Released by Angel Studios, the film marks the third major iteration of the story, following the 1947 original and a 2009 Hallmark adaptation.
Despite fitfully engaging moments and a standout presence from Tommy Lee Jones, the film tends to add religious piousness at the expense of traditional cinematic thrills. Overall, it serves as a mixed entry for fans of the genre.
