you just don't remake arnold movies, especially such a good classic

your movie will always be half as good.. man they have to violate everything sacred don't they..

and Kate Beckinsale is bangers.. good lord.

Wasn't the greatest. Chick with 3 tits was a highlight. Action scenes where decent. The chase scenes panned between in car and full cgi and that was no buenos for me. I don't regret watching it though. 6.5/10

I thought it was a pretty good movie. I've been reading around here that it's shit, so I had low expectations. I found it to be a decent watch.

As a general rule, any film with Arnie in it is the definitive version, and should never be remade.

This film, the remake, was utter dogshit.

I only have a couple of gripes in this movie.

One is that I realize Kate Beckinsale needs braces on her lower teeth. They're super crooked.

Two is the scene at the end where it kept pointing to Jessica Biel and one moment, she has snot coming out of her nose, then the next scene, there's no snot in her nose.. then the next scene shows her with snot coming out of her nose again.

I thought it was fun, I had a great time watching it. So many people calling the movie complete utter shit which I don't get at all. Ok, I get it if you think the film sucked but don't act like it's the shittiest movie ever.

What I liked most about this new one was the wide shots of city scapes. Looked gorgeous. Like Kate Beckinsale. Who is also one of the best things about this remake.

i think he might have meant the new one, "more totally recalled again"
