There are also small but playful touches, like Fletch wearing Lakers gear in, you know, Boston. Fletch might not really have any reason to confess, but on that modest level, the movie qualifies as a not-so-guilty pleasure. “Confess, Fletch” premieres in US theaters and on digital platforms on September 16.
