stuff since the two original theatrical films in the 1990s (including but not limited to a Broadway show, two animated features and a forthcoming Tim Burton-directed Netflix series) that it’s easy to forget just how good they both were. The first film, directed by Barry Sonnenfeld and co-written by Burton collaborators Larry Wilson and Caroline Thompson (and later re-written by Paul Rudnick), doesn’t have quite the same edge as the sequel but it did establish the world beautifully.
This is thanks largely to the note-perfect cast led by Anjelica Houston and Raul Julia and including Christopher Lloyd, Christina Ricci, Carel Struycken, Dan Hedaya and Mercedes McNab and the rich production design and cinematography, which turned the old black-and-white TV show (and the even-older black-and-white newspaper strip) into a vibrant, wacky delight.Criminally ahead of its time, “Blackhat,” a globetrotting cyber thriller starring Chris Hemsworth as the world’s sexiest hacker, is ripe for reappraisal. Directed by Michael Mann, a filmmaker whose works are widely discussed long after release (there’s an entire podcast devoted to his “Miami Vice” remake, seen at the time as a critical and commercial failure), “Blackhat” has some expertly staged set pieces and is filled with the kind of minutia that only Mann is concerned with.
While there are some puzzling aspects of “Blackhat,” it didn’t deserve to be so universally ignored (in many countries, the film was released direct-to-video). Mann even went back and created a director’s cut, which was shown theatrically once and has since aired on FX intermittently.
