I almost didn't watch this movie because of the IMDB reviews, but I ended up watching it anyway. I am glad I did because it turned out to be a pretty good movie. Comparable to the original? No. Was it supposed to be? No. But was it a fun and entertaining movie? Yes, it was. The bad reviews I read came off as a mixture of remake purists who demanded a shot for shot clone and others who were upset that the movie wasn't woke enough. Instead the movie was reasonable balanced, well written, fairly acted, and had some seriously funny moments. It's okay for a movie to just be good entertainment without it being a life changing cinematic experience.
