lil slow but better than suspec zero, keeps your attentio more than man on fire
Not bad…
Good story and good acting, but…
there was more graphic violence than the trailer led you to believe. Some parts were very predictable, but overall they did a good job with this movie - good enough that now I’m interested in seeing the original…
Very graphic, but a good flick
Rent this one. The story is a bit slow and predictable.
Enjoyable, well done attempt.
It takes some brass ones to remake a classic that was way ahead of its’ time and contained some real cinema daring do. If you have never seen the 1962 original you’ll like this one. If you have seen the Frankenheimer movie you’ll be disappointed. Not as dark or as dangerous. There is no attempt to match the classic 360
