I'll be honest: usually I have an automatic hate for remakes - especially films which were good to begin with. Why bother, you know? That is just a big ego trip on the part of the filmmaker who thinks he can do better. Is this one better than the original? No. Is it worse? No, not really. The best way I can describe this if I had to choose only one word would be "unnecessary". Sure there was some stronger scenes than the original, but somehow the comedic spark which made the original so appealing was lacking here. They tried, but not hard enough. This wasn't as bad as some of the haters are making this one out to be, but it really didn't do anything better or worse than the original one. All things considered, I enjoyed it for what it was. I was able to blank out the original in my memory and just watch this one and let it happen. Would I watch it again? Oh, maybe. Not tomorrow, but yeah. I guess I'd watch it again.
