Posted Image So first off, I figured this would be a decent movie before I watched it since I'm one of the few that don't prejudge remakes. But i watched it and well...I was super disappointed. First off, Vince Vaughn makes a fucking TERRIBLE Norman Bates. Urgh. Anne Heche and Viggo Mortensen and the rest did good though. The other main problem was that the film refused to stray far at all from the original. Instead, we get one more stab to the private investigator, and we see drops of blood in the shower, and random flashes to cows in the road and naked blindfolded women turning their head when the private I dies. Big whoop. No big changes. Nothing. it was like a colorized version of the original and it bugged me. Still, it was well acted and pretty to look at. It was ust nothing new at all... |

Aren't even the camera angles the same? I mean.... what's the point of the film if it's practically the same in every single way? |

Yeah Repo, it is pretty much the same shots as well :lol: This is probably one of my least favorite remakes. Not because the acting or effects were bad but... because there was literally NO point in it being made. I'm fine with some scenes being the same, but literally EVERY SINGLE THING? ... (ono) |

I can't stand this movie. It tried to be just like the original, but simply failed horribly. |

Agreed. It's funny how when it's nearly 100% shot for shot. It still managed to be utter crap. |

^Yes, yes, a thousand times yes. Vince Vaughn should stick to buddy comedies with Owen Wilson and awkward rom coms... Just sayin'. |

Vince was a HORRID Norman. Other than that, I really liked this and imo, the kills are better in this than the original. |

Yes because the original was all about the kills. (no) |
