A murder mystery featuring the return of an intrepid reporter tops the DVD releases for the week of April 4.
"Confess, Fletch": This belated sort-of sequel to the 1985 Chevy Chase comedy finds Jon Hamm assuming the role of the cheeky reporter/detective, who must clear his name after being framed for murder.
"Who would have guessed that the best post-Draper role Hamm would play would be Gregory Mcdonald’s popular, wise-cracking sleuth Irwin Maurice Fletcher, better known as Fletch," writes Boston Herald critic James Verniere in his review. "He doesn’t make us forget how much fun Chase was. But Hamm puts his own stamp on it, and he plays it with the effortlessness he had in 'Mad Men.'"
