Might be terrible -- suspiciously debuts on Showtime in October after a limited theatrical run -- but nice coastal Mass. shooting locales at least (Cohasett, hasn't been on-screen since THE WITCHES OF EASTWICK)

Re: CONFESS, FLETCH - Jon Hamm - Theaters Sept./Everywhere Else October
As someone on Twitter recently mused, why not give this a wide theatrical release, especially as there's "nothing" opening between now and Black Adam? 
Star-driven comedies have become a surprisingly endangered genre on the big screen, and it's strange, considering what a miserable state the world is in these days. Don't people want a good, healthy LAUGH at the movies anymore? It's not the same when you're watching something like this streaming at home. Right now there's a Mark Wahlberg/Kevin Hart movie that just dropped on Netflix, and three years ago it probably would have made $200 million worldwide, even if the reviews were bad.
