Title: One of my all-time favorite movies
Review: For those that love classical movies, this review is not for you. Watch the original. For those of you who, like me, find the old "classics" slow and contrived, this is the fast-paced modern version you should watch. Its got a touch more realism (but still an escapist adventure), a much better soundtrack, and a cast that I found to be more interesting across the board. Hepburn is too haughty, Grant is too old for her, and both the bad guys and the Paris police are more fun in the new one. The original, while very well-written, still comes off a typical Hollywood 60s product. The remake, an edgy take on a clever story with great twists, is superior. Its a shame everyone else reviewing on here seems to be classical fans looking for the same old product.
Is the review positive or negative?
