Why Netflix’s Lazy ‘He’s All That’ Suggests A Grim Streaming Future


TANNER BUCHANAN as CAMERON KWELLER and ADDISON RAE as PADGETT SAWYER in HE'S ALL THAT. The gender-swapped remake of He’s All That is both not good and the most-watched movie on Netflix today. That Netflix released a bad movie that became briefly popular is neither unusual or much of a long-term problem. As with Disney’s live-action Beauty and the Beast remake, Hollywood often attempts to fix gender-specific issues by “fixing” the female character rather than fixing how the male characters treat her. Hollywood could make a mega-budget Static Shock movie instead of a “But this time he’s Black!” Superman flick.
