credibility be give the first version for the usual reason . be there really anyone who hasn not see the first one . one of those be that their be gray hair in charge of the project and working in the lab . i find it hard to see where the survival of the entire planet would be give to a handful of young scientist . it more like the andromeda strain for kid . i understand that everyone who do a remake feel compel to update by add more time and effort to the sub plot and but really . the original version be tight and tense for it time . the story be compress into a normal time slot of approximately two hour . drag this story out with unnecessary sub plot and edit out pertinent data derive from the book be a good example of how to take a good story and ruin it by force and expand sub plot where they be never need . would be a good example for film school on what not to do in a remake .
