My quick rating - 5,5/10. I will say I liked this but again, just can't compare to the source material. Not a disappointment this time, just seemed to try and rely too much on the effects and not the story. The plot itself just seemed to be rushed and secondary. Casting wise I think they did a good job with this one. Some pretty funny moments as well but just not overall that impressive. Still, if this weren't a remake it may have done better. Unfair, yes, but that is what happens.
