i haven not see the original and but just want to drop a quick note to anyone who happen to scroll down this far represent wicker man be the bad movie i have see this year . maybe even in two year . i wish i could ask the theater for my money back or turn back time to warn myself not to see it . i will give it two positive nod represent the sarcasm of cage character at least get some laugh from me and the scenery of the island be beautiful . sorry and that it . here come the jeer . the movie plot be only propelled forward because other character would not give cage any straight answer and he put up with this . how this could go on for over an hour of my time ( much less day in the movie ) be beyond me . not to mention that the plot be full of hole . you leave the theater with enough unanswered question to fill a library . how anyone could read this script and think and yes and people should pay $ 11 to see this shady outline of what a film should look like be beyond me . do not go see this flick . or even rent it on dvd .
