Quotes
Bernie:
I wanna talk to you, man. All that stuff that I was sayin' to you about her potentially being Alison? I didn't mean it, man. I'm seeing a difference in you. I feel like it's because of her. I'm kind of like, jealous, a little bit? I'm really happy for you, Danny.

Bad acting....bad dialog....just bad. The first thing I did when I got home was put in my DVD of the original.
The original wasn't filled with great actors....but the actors were casted for their parts perfectly. Jim Belushi was awesome...Elizabeth Perkins played the jilted BFF perfectly...and Demi Moore was...well, Demi Moore. Rob Lowe...not known for great acting...probably gave one of his best performances.
This remake is just a lazy attempt to make a quick buck...and it shows. I guess the movie industry has run out of ideas...since every movie now seems like it's already been done and there are more and more remakes every year.
