- We put Andrew Scott's Ripley (2024) side by side with The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999) featuring Matt Damon, Jude Law and Gwyneth Paltrow. How do these 2 versions stack up to you? #ripley #thetalentedmrripley #sidebyside #thenandnow #reboot #celeb
I could easily believe, that everyone was obsessed with Jude Law...this one? Nah
Also, nothing against Andrew Scott but he was giving off sinister vibes only while Matt Damon had this innocence to him and I could totally get, why they treated him like their cute pet dog.
Also Jude Law’s Dickie actually makes it believable that he’d just up and leave Marge
@@Dumbangel This is absolutely true. Gwyneth's Marge was well aware of Dickie's tendency to get bored of people, as well as his wandering eyes when it came to the ladies. He says he loves Marge, but you never get the sense that he truly values her, as he frequently does things that he knows will upset her but he never does anything to change his behaviour. She's just the sad, loyal puppy dog that he needs to keep happy to maintain the status quo.
In contrast, Dakota's Marge doesn't really have anything to complain about when it comes to Dickie. He remains faithful to her, gives her the desired space to focus on her writing, and frequently asks her opinion on things. They're far more like partners. His only negative is that she loves him far more than he loves her, according to Dickie himself, but his behaviour doesn't reflect that.
Correct. Andrew was a disaster.
bro hasnt seen alain in the french version
The series highlighted how important Matt Damon and Jude Law were to the film.
As Tom, Matt had this boyish innocence to him that made him very likeable, even when he was committing horrible crimes. It seemed like a case of a dreamer who got corrupted by the situation and deeply afraid of losing his newfound lifestyle.
Whereas Andrew Scott as Tom was corrupt from the beginning, and you never really got the sense that he was ever a good person. He was already ripping people off back in New York, and Dickie seemed like just a mark for him.
Likewise, Jude as Dickie had this undeniable charm to him that made it very easy to become enamoured with him. Everywhere he went, he was the centre of attention, which he was proud of and used for his own means.but beneath the charming exterior, there was a cold and cruel personality that would come out as soon as he grew tired of the person, which ultimately revealed him as a villain.
However, Johnny Flynn as Dickie was far more grounded. He wasn’t particularly charming or exceptionally good looking, so it was much harder to buy him as this playboy that everybody gravitated towards. Even the way he treated Tom was not unreasonable, as he handled rejecting him as best as he could.
Obviously, I preferred the film.
Yeah the people who prefer the series are either bots, never saw the movies or read the books, or literally didn’t understand the appeal of the characters.
@@VashTheDamnFiend The series is literally a piece of art.
@@VashTheDamnFiend Yeah I saw the film many times and it does have it's very very good but the series is better.
@@biharcourt tbh it would work better as an original series if the writers actually did some real work. I’m sick of studios using established characters and titles and tweaking them. It’s just exploitative and stale. Doesn’t it feel like we have so many less memorable original characters being created the last 10-15 years? Especially in American media
Very well said! The movie is irreplaceable! No only Matt Damon and Jude Law, Gwyneth Paltrow as Marge, Philip Seymour Hoffman
as Freddie Miles and Jack Davenport as Peter were also brilliant! It's the impeccable casting for the story. (Of course, including the young Cate Blanchett)
The movie is a Masterpiece that is one of the Best Films Ever Made. The Series is well done but I felt like the Black and White cinematography was used more as a Gimmic and wasn't necessary. The Series will be a Distant Memory in the years to come where as the Movie, I could Never Forget..
The show was great. Amazing cinematography. Every shot looks like a well composed photo.
Lmfao it was garbage. Anyone who knows anything about filmography can tell you the black and white noir look was horribly done and over saturated. Not to mention the fact it’s pretentious to even do in the first place, albeit poorly.
The show was so good. Only seen parts of the movie, but the show was so well produced and such good acting. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Sad it’s over 😂
L
watch the movie bro.
The fact that you said that and use emojis to express yourself tells everyone all they need to know about you
See the film. Who watches just "some of it." Boo.
Show started off a little slow but man i really liked it!
I just loved Matt Damon's Ripley. The Netflix Ripley was a bit too cold and icy.
That's ironically why I prefer the show over the movie. It's about a serial killer/psychopath, it shouldn't be a humorous happy go lucky take
No phillip seymour hoffman so the show is by default worse
@@EarthHasSecretspsychopaths are typically charming
@@EarthHasSecretslol did you see the movie? It’s not “humorous happy go-lucky” at all, it’s extremely dark and twisted. The person is saying the actor did a terrible job of portraying Ripley as a character and instead just did a generic and bland serial killer.
@@VashTheDamnFiend I never said the movie was happy go lucky. I was referring to what the person who I was replying to said. And if you READ IT, REALLY SLOWLY AGAIN TO YOURSELF , you would clearly see this
series is a work of art
Lol they couldn’t even get the actor to look the within a decade of the character’s age.
Better than the film.. for me ..
A masterpiece
Bot

What a tragedy is Freddy Miles this awoken age..
THANK YOU! SOMONE HAD TO STATE THE OBVIOUS
Looks like Kathleen Kennedy was involved..
Nah, Alain Delon was the best Ripley
I'll pass on this one. The original is a Total Classic fr! Love Jude Law, Matt Damon and Gwyneth Paltrow! 💜💯Awesome cast.
I have seen both. Both are fantastic. Watch it
Exactly!!!❤
And the unforgettable Hoffman
That’s not the original, try Purple Noon
Agree.
The way they just used a woman to play freddie miles part and nobody mentions it like you're not even supposed to notice
The series can't compete, and makes a load of weird choices. Sucks all the charisma out of all the characters.
Andrew scott was perfect ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Lol he’s like 30 years too old for the role
No he wasn't.
@@emin5488 🥱😴
Where’s Peter ?!
He wasn't in the series
He was invented for the 1999 movie
@@randywhite3947Negative, he was in the novel, but was a minor character. Ripley considers taking his identity and decides that he could not pass himself off as him. I have read the novel several times and watched Plein Soleil/Purple Noon along with The 1999 Talented Mr Ripley. The 1999 film by Minghella is a masterpiece. It does take some creative liberties to adapt the novel for film and was more explicit with the homosexual undercurrent, but it was very much truer to the spirit of Ripley in my view. I feel that had Highsmith lived to see Minghella's 1999 Ripley, she would have very loved it. The tv series is quite flawed though still watchable, but is poor compared to Minghella's masterful 1999 adaptation. Meredith Logue is a completely new character created by Minghella, but Peter Smith-Kingsley is already in the novel, just a forgettable minor character.
Alvin McCarren is such a good actor. He crushed it on Fargo Season 2. More of this actor please.
1999 .. sorry but that is untouchable IMO ..
the one with black and white is surprisingly the newer series lol (2024)
The best version "Plein Soleil" with Alain Delon (1960)
The characters in the series behave in a cold and detached way. Andrew Scot character look to old for the character.
The film and the book has a humanity to how Tom Ripley is.
maybe the movie was more accurate to the book, but the show was way better for me....andrew scotts awkward but sinister acting was so good...
The cinematography in the series was better, like a Hitchcock classic, but the casting in the movie was superior because of the believability 👌🏼
We wish them well.
it feel like they purposely downgrade the handsomeness of the cast from original.
But why??
There is no logical explanation in this
Such a dumb way to criticize the series
The original was from 1960 (though it was adapted before that)
"why aren't they hot?😢"
It gets much better . Dakota fanning was great
Dakota
only one version has matt damon singing my funny valentine
I've never heard of this show!!
I’ve only watched the first episode but it feels off, and not in a good way. In fairness It’s tough to compare it to such an amazing film.
I love the 1999s movie and love the 1960's one with alain delon, but this series os just not it ... I slept while starting the second episode... Too boring. The lack of colors makes it so so boring
I find the series is the best. I love it better than the movie. Cinematography is insane. Every frame looks like a magazine's cover photo.
The series more faithful to the novel but the film by far the superior work
french version
I’m so glad they made a new version that’s slower, boring, and less plausible.
Nah
The Movie is a 9/10, the Netflix show is a 6.5.
Cringe
Apart from Andrew Lincoln and the Italian detective, every other actor chosen for the series has zero charisma or personality.
There IS no comparison. What a waste of time and money. Shame on Netflix.
Series is great besides the actor for Freddie. Of course it’s Stings kid. Can’t act
Noooo
Andrew Scott did his best but failed. The one who played Dickie was such lifeless boring character. The cinematography was so good. (a non binary actress to play Fredie ? Really? ... 🙄)
As a fan of the 1999 movie and Alain Delon adaptation too, this series is just not it. Particularly i deslike the lack of colors. I think they wanted so bad to look "cult" or unique they took off an important part of the story atmosphere. Italy isn't pretty, mesmerizing or interesting. It's just boring.
Terrible show, great movie. Awful choice for Freddy btw!
Freddie
The 1999 one is better in every way and I’ve watched them both
The original was definitely better. But the new version isn't bad at all.
The original was called purple noon (though it was adapted before that) and it was released in 1960
@@randywhite3947 Oh, interesting info. Thanks for sharing!
@@randywhite3947 I watched both of theses versions (1999 and 2024) on Netflix and the 1999 was much better. I didn't know it has already been adapted tho.
The show overrall is better, if we can have a younger andrew scott with jude, the show marge.. and idk who, show miles or movie miles. But the rest of characters I'm taking the show version. Everything else the show is better.
The only character I think they improved upon is Freddie, and maybe Marge
