Title: Very poor remake of a classic
Review: I missed "The Jackal" when it was released, but the promo's all said it was a modern remake of the classic "Day of the Jackal". Forget it! Not only is this a bad remake, it's so boring I trashed it halfway thru and never want to see it again. Put your time and money into the original "Day of the Jackal" and see what a great movie-maker like Fred Zinneman and company can do with a story like this.
