Not nearly as good as the original

Rating: 5/10 (22 July 2011)

Well, i admit i didn't expect anything from this remake, but i actually got a bit surprised. The plot is rather well-written (even if it's a remake) It's rather consistent and easy to follow, but not extremely dumbed down either. The characters are easy to follow and they aren't that annoying (sometimes they are incredibly stupid like in every movie)
However, as you might expect it's full of different clichés such as the "shaky camera" during action where the camera shakes like the cameraman got an epileptic seizure, or the "extremly fast fading camera" where YOU might get an epileptic seizure.
And in some instances the music has to do all the dramatic acting, and on top of that the music usually spoils some surprises, in that it always gets dramatic when something dramatic is going to happen.
But overall it's a pretty good movie, however the original still tops it.
