Much has been written about Hollywood’s inability to light Black skin, but considering that Laustsen also shot “ Mimic” and “ The Shape of Water,” I must conclude that his lighting here is a misguided stylistic choice. ![]() The light is so distracting that it blots out Danny Glover’s entire face during his best scene. I haven’t seen a movie this obsessed with light coming through venetian blinds since 1984. Those flaws are all behind the camera, starting with the awful cinematography by Dan Laustsen. In fact, it’s almost good, so close to success that its flaws truly become frustrating. “Proud Mary” doesn’t deserve the lack of faith its studio has in it. Yet Screen Gems was hiding the movie from critics as if it were a drunk frat boy trying to crash a classy black-tie soiree. Henson’s take on John Cassavetes’ “Gloria.” “Proud Mary” is fronted by an Oscar-nominated actress whose last film, “ Hidden Figures” made an ungodly amount of money at the box office. Since the superb trailer, which played like gangbusters every time I saw it at theaters, I have been feening for Taraji P. And I’ll be honest: Professionalism had nothing to do with it I just really wanted to see this damn movie. The hero of this remake-let’s call him Odieseus-eventually found his Ithaca after a two-hour commute to a Jamaica, Queens movie theater.
