I liked the idea but was expecting it to be terrible. I was pleasantly surprised. I thought it was well paced although there were a few distracting edits with the makeup and Joe climbing the wire. It wasn't so bad it made me stop watching though. The ending was a little weak for my tastes but overall I enjoyed it.

I recall enjoying this movie as a kid but something tells me my opinion has changed as I've grown.

I've seen worse remakes but I'd still go with the original on this every time.

This review reportedly contains spoilers. I can handle the truth.
