Very cool movie!

Rating: Null/10 (3 June 2003)

When I first started hearing about this movie I was totally against it. Although I've never seen the original, I knew of it's status and was afraid that the remake would be bad. I went to see it last night though and discovered that I'd fallen into the trap that a lot of movie critics do. I was negative about the movie without having seen it. When I went, I was completely surprised. It's a really fun movie with good acting all the way around. There's some pretty good jokes in there too. I always wondered where the name Napster came from. If I had one complaint to make about the movie, it would be that not enough time was given to the Mini chase. I've heard that the chase in the original was awesome, with the Minis going over rooftops and all kinds of other stuff. Here it just didn't seem long enough to me. Other than that, this is one to see. It definitely "Blew the bloody doors off" of the summer, but probably not off of the original.
