I don't think I ever saw the original film, if I did it was on television, heavily edited. I don't recall much that's for sure. Not that you need to have seen it for this film to make sense - trust me - they have no problem getting the exposition you need across :)
So because this is a film that's light on plot, heavy on set pieces - I won't ruin any for you. What I'll say is this - Adrian Brody is surprisingly good as an action hero. There's a twist at the end that feels tacked on for no good reason, but overall, it's a pretty enjoyable enough ride.
Left to my own devices I can't imagine I'd ever chose to see this film, so I thank my good pal Stew for dragging me out to it!
