In the remake of the 2019 Argentinian film “4×4,” director David Yaroevsky (“Brightburn”) transforms the original’s time-constrained suspense into a deep character study under high pressure, which he layers with contemporary political discourse. However, the phrase “results may differ” could hardly be more accurate for this movie, given its star-studded cast featuring Bill Skarsgård and Anthony Hopkins. Despite their impressive acting credentials, Yaroevsky manages to deliver on his task, but not consistently.
The remake of the 2019 Argentinian film “4×4,” directed by David Yaroevsky (“Brightburn”), takes the original’s tense atmosphere and turns it into a character study under pressure.
