Better Than Expected, 3 November 1998
8/10
Author: harry-m from Ft Lauderdale, Florida, USA

Although I am generally against remaking classic movies, I must admit that this TV-movie starring Jim Belushi was very well done and was far better than I expected. And Belushi's fine acting was a delightful surprise, too. I recommend that you see the original with Humphrey Bogart and compare. You'll enjoy both.
