    Was it good? Most the reviews say no. Action, suspense, comedy...what type of movie?

    Eh, it's OK. Lots of big names. Somewhat typical heist movie. It's just a fun movie, nothing more.

    I thought it was a totally fun flick and plan on buying the DVD.

    I did however catch the original on Encore the other night. Man, did that one blow. I wouldn't have thought a movie with the whole Rat Pack could suck so badly, but it was just laughable.

    This is one I doubt I'll even bother renting. It has a '0' appeal factor to me.

    Yeah, me too.

    A goose-egg.

    I liked the original... But only cause it's The Rat Pack just walking around being cool. (It's a lame flick, really.) But Frank... Frank's just cool.

    I really have no desire to see remakes. They bore me. I like originals. The only remake I've seen that really was well done was the Pierce Brosnan version of THOMAS CROWN AFFAIR. I love Steve McQueen, but I had to admit they did a classy job of it.
