Dumb movie

Rating: 2/10 (2 September 2006)

Typically, I don't turn movies off - and I didn't with this one - hence, the 2 out 10 rating. Otherwise, it would have gotten a 1 out of 10. I was pretty close to turning it off though. I was I had because I smelled sequel at the end there. God, I hope not.
This movie was really just plain dumb. While the acting wasn't too bad, I really didn't feel anything for the characters. I could care less when they were getting whacked. And that's the whole point, I think. Do I really want to sit through a movie where I have absolutely no feelings for the characters while they are getting bludgeoned to death? I think not.
Now, let's get to the plot: IT STUNK! I'm not going to give anything away, but it's mind boggling that someone in Hollywood green-lighted this script. I know it's a remake, but seriously, I think a monkey could've done better. I haven't seen the original, but I've heard it wasn't that good - so why remake it?? Money, money, money.
I'll tell ya what's truly perplexing to me is the current rating on IMDb - 6.4!!! Are you people really that ig'nant? Arrrgghhh!
