I'm a fan of the original, but I don't feel there's any use in comparing it to the remake.
Having said that, the remake does have some decent scenes. The frantic opening sequence, which reminded me a lot of NARC, was probably the standout.
Unfortunatley, it also had some rather uninspired moments, including a Die Hard 2 reference (at least, that's the first time I've seen the ice in the eye trick) and some inappropriately talky moments.
But, it's not all bad, and while it doesn't have the low budget, anything goes feeling of the original (I know I said I wasn't going to compare the two, but shit...) it does have a few decent moments.
5.5 out of 10. There are better films to be seen out there right now. Check this one only if you've already seen them.
