thiago s Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/02/25 Full Review Blu B Pointless remake? Sure. Terrible remake? No not really. It's totally competant and makes perfect sense just like the original. The acting isn't bad. Washington and Travolta are decent going back and forth but the new character background doesn't really add much. Everyone else is just alright and a bit forgettable including the passengers which to be fair was the same in the original. Overall Shaw was way better than Travolta although he has his moments. The bad guys in general were better in the first. Besides Travolta I barely remember any of the other four at all. The cinematogrpahy isn't bad either. It has that Tony Scott look to it all for better or worse. The subway scenes sometimes are so dark you can barely see as well. Scott's direction can be distracting more than adding to the story. But again it's not bad and the action scenes are pretty well done. The pacing isn't bad either and everything else is alright enough. This replaces a lot of the dark humor of the original with commentary and character development but it really doesn't add much and my biggest problem is it feels like filler more than a thriller. The original everything felt like it had a logical and interesting flow. This feels like the new stuff added in isn't as focused and the ending is more conventional than the ending to the original which doesn't have as much action but is amazing. On top of that Scott edits this like a msic video as well and it's aged about as well as you'd expect. The music is trying so hard to be modern and 2009 that it dates itself heavily. This is oddly enough the biggest downgrade to the theme of the original. Also, Matthau was way better in the role as well. Honestly, skip this and watch the original. It's not terrible it's just pointless in the grand scheme and I can't really find any reason to watch this over that. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/01/25 Full Review Gary G Not quite like reworking the sound of music but equally pointless . The original had charm and a building tension this version has neither .
