Earlier this year The Criterion Collection released an excellent blu-ray (and UHD blu-ray) with all the different versions of the film on it.

They also assaulted several people before being assaulted themselves. All very reprehensible obviously but the "victims" certainly weren't innocent.

Probably not reading into what the angle was of this particular fan edit. When you compare the three posters (the broadway one, the initial poster for the film and the fan edit) then it becomes immediately clear that there was no ill intention by the creator of the fan edit.

Definitely not. But he has created some amazing scores. I really, really love his score for The Thin Red Line. That is imho one of the best scores of the past 30 years.

If the title of this topic means that you were amused for the first 25 minutes then that is a lot longer than what I got out of it. I found it a very bland, unfunny and unremarkable movie. The creators did nothing to make it stand out.

It certainly is one of the flaws of this film. I agree that it would be a much better film if they had focused the story on the kids. Films like E.T. and The Goonies (which were obviously an inspiration) worked so well because of that more focused story.

I don't prefer it to the original but I do feel that it is much better than a lot of people give it credit for. I watched it again tonight after not having seen it for a long time and quite enjoyed it. It has its flaws (specifically the first 10 to 15 minutes + Jaden Smith's part) but as a whole it wasn't bad at all. One of the few remakes where the modernised plot worked really well for me. Not a masterpiece but not bad either.

I gave it a 6/10. But only just. I enjoyed the film but I shouldn't have. Some of the characters were interesting but the story didn't make much use of that. The plot was much less interesting than the original film even though the concept hadn't grown stale if you ask me. I loved the first film and they could have made much more of this one.

I love it. It is a bit of a forgotten gem. One of the few times where an American remake of a French film surpasses the original. Very well directed by Schumacher and perfect casting of the two leads. Actually: all of the cast is great.

I mostly agree with this and my rating was a 6/10 as well. The acting is a little weird. Can't put my finger on it but it is often very wooden. Could have to do with the poor dialog and the needlessly drawn out scenes. Also some scenes that clearly were meant to be scary or dramatic come across as funny to me. Not a good film.
