Here comes another movie that's a remake. Is it me or is Hollywood getting really lazy? All they do anymore is remake old movies or make 70's and 80's tv shows and cartoons into movies. It's few and far between when a good movie with an original story comes out.
That being said, I am intrigued by this movie and want to see it. I never saw the original movie from '74 starring the late Walter Matthau but there's something about Denzel Washington and an inked up crazy looking John Travolta (yes, we are talking about the same guy who won a dance contest doing the hand jive) that makes we want to dish out the dough to go see it.
Both of these gentlemen are superb actors in their own right and both seem to be playing parts that suit them. Travolta has a knack for playing the insane but intelligent bad guy (see Swordfish) while Denzel plays me vs. the world better than anyone I've ever seen (see all of his movies, except Training Day which he was incredible in).
It should be interesting and I'll let you know how it is.
