His onscreen time is comparable to Bokeem Woodbine's - more than a cameo, but not constant through the movie.<br /><br />And I just corrected a damn typo I had in this post ("lose" instead of "loose"). I swear I proof read this thing three or four times before I posted it and still missed it.Chip Laryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00787403805554027107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4564277570960354470.post-85307260138684916752012-08-22T18:30:07.639-04:002012-08-22T18:30:07.639-04:00Great review!

I may enjoy Beckinsale running around though, that's always nice to watch.s.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13987831438787776712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4564277570960354470.post-24962468711704468632012-08-18T14:02:36.532-04:002012-08-18T14:02:36.532-04:00Thanks.

I seem to be in the minority in not hating this remake, but at the same time most people who hate it wanted to see a jokey movie more like the original and didn't get it.Chip Laryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00787403805554027107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4564277570960354470.post-56582560588429575002012-08-16T23:38:02.061-04:002012-08-16T23:38:02.061-04:00Great review and I like how you distinguish betwee...Great review and I like how you distinguish between the original and the remake. I have absolutely no expectations from the remake and although I grew up watching the original, I am not a fan so i'll watch the remake like i'd watch any sci-fi film.

I had been looking forward to the fight between Beckinsale and Biel, but the editing of it made it hard to follow what was happening some of the time.Chip Laryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00787403805554027107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4564277570960354470.post-52120201526175653952012-08-10T13:01:16.469-04:002012-08-10T13:01:16.469-04:00Thanks.

The action sequences are swiftly edited, most of times you don't even see what's happening, who's kicking who.

It barely has any tension and as much CGI Wiseman throws at us, we never really get lost in the world that he's trying to re-create in his own, 2012-ish way.Dan O.http://www.dtmmr.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
