Didn't really like the original much, so I figured I might like the remake better. It was aight. Nic Cage's hair seems to get frizzier and greasier with each movie. The story is pretty standard, but I hate how Nic's character says he lives be a code of guidelines with each "mission," but then immediately break them all when he goes to Thailand.
I also wasn't too keen on the sub-plot involving him teaching the young thief how he does things, another example of how he breaks his own rules for really no reason. The action could've been better and the ending seemed too unnecessary and hastily-handled. Regardless, I still liked it a little better than the original, which I found a little boring and confusing at times.
6/10
