The Hulu reboot of High Fidelity is great, except for this one problem.
What are TV shows and movies supposed to do? Cast women who aren’t conventionally attractive in those roles? Perish the thought! Still, Kravitz’s je ne sais quoi goes beyond physical attractiveness; her coolness is an elemental state of being, and it’s not something she can obscure with a grungy T-shirt and a pair of jeans. With parents like Lenny Kravitz and originalstar Lisa Bonet, she was predisposed to it from birth, the way other families pass down a history of elevated cholesterol.
Frankly, I’m not sure Kravitz channels the esprit de loser that made the book and the original film so relatable. The original Rob is, by 2020 standards, a huge schmuck , but he and his record-shop coworkers embodied a kind of collective, communal dork-dom that felt almost cozy. Kravitz’s rapport with her coworkers Cherise and Simon is a joy to watch, but their chemistry doesn’t exactly make Rob seem like bad news either. As hard as Kravitz works to dim her light in, she doesn’t quite succeed; to her credit, though, her Rob is way more magnetic onscreen than the original, and it’s still fun to watch her try.
