Strangely interesting

Rating: Null/10 (20 September 2003)

Much to my surprise, I liked this movie a lot, mostly because it wasn't a movie that gave me weeks of nightmares. More like two nights.
In a way, it's more than the sum of its ingredients. The plot is simple and unoriginal (well, it's sort of a remake), the scenes cheesy, the presentation, casting, CGI and even humor is only slightly shiny.
Yet, it manages to be thrilling at times, the humor is actually somewhat funny, and it has that Old-Time Adventuring Spirit from Indy's days. It's a horror-action-comedy and it actually manages to do somewhat decently in all three sections. And it was actually watchable a couple of times.
All things considered, it was pretty good.
