My subjective opinion is that the remake pales in comparison to the original to the extent that the original's slower pace allowed the suspense to build in the story. By contrast, the new film moves at a much faster pace, which is good in some ways since I like action movies as much as if not more than the next person, but at the expense of more character development and establishment of suspenseful mood.Originally Posted by Robert Crawford
I watched this in a movie theater and have been a fan of the original for 35 years. With that said, I don't know how it pales to the original? Though the basic plotline are the same, they're quite different in a lot of ways that I can appreciate as a film lover. I received my BRD of it last week and will be watching it shortly as my viewing list is overwhelming me for the moment.
Anyhow, thanks for the review.
