Absence of Hitch's charm , energy

Thought Toby Jones did a very solid job here but something was missing, maybe in the script itself. Jones always seemed stiff and slow, which Hitch had - but he also often had energy and whimsy. Here he was mostly brooding, and his humor was typically meant to unsettle people. That's a limited view of the man, which made the film seem kinda slanted against reality.
