Title: Why A Remake of a Classic?
Review: O.K., sucker that I am I bought this on Blu-ray due to the fact that I loved the original and I thought by what they can do with special effects today, this would be great. Little did I know how wrong I was. Some of the extras that are included on this special edition stated that Fox had wanted to do a remake of the original for quite some time. I still wonder why. Despite a lot of jabs at Keanu for playing so wooden, look people he was an alien and I thought did a good job trying to play human. Doesn't anyone remember Jeff Bridges in Starman? The brat of this remake should have been destroyed by Gort from the very beginning. Talk about your obnoxious kid! I had mixed feelings while watching this film. I liked some parts and others I thought stunk! I guess it's due to the fact that I have watched the original so many times that this remake really didn't do it for me. I hated the ending, but that's just my opinion. I too would recommend renting this instead of buying.
