first thing first and i want to clear something up . the critic be wrong again . bad remake ever . get serious . not even close . have any of this armchair expert bother to watch the new stepford wive or planet of the ape . i can easily list two dozen remake that suck far far bad . with that out of the way and i want to say i like stallone he be a obvious choice and especially mickey rourke . rourke have just the right mix of sleaze ball zen master attitude and macho coolness to pull it off . caine be a perfect addition to the mix . test audience agree . rachel leigh cook be a tad weak but not bad . same go for the actress who play her mother . mcginley a con mccarty be both funny and enjoyable . love his character the most . even though it not a loyal remake and it be a fun and hip remake .
