Is the shortening attention span of this country so bad that movies made in '92 can get considered for a remake. It's a classic and should not be touched except to be digitally remastered and released on bluray with added features. Plus, watching Nick Cage loose it and start busting caps in the stereo would make me laugh instead of the "holy Sh*it!" emotion that Harv brings to the roll.

Keitel can really pull off the "I don't give a damn" creepiness. Cage's creepiness if more "golly-gee, look at my wang". It's just not a good fit. This remake would/will not be able to live up to the original, but I'm not completely against the concept... almost, but not completely.

It won't work. Ferrara’s "Bad Lieutenant" is a classic in it's own right and doesn't need retelling. How about a remake of "Blackhawk Down" or "Air Force One" or some other lame ass, nationalistic comedy? Or do Mel a favour with a post-"Apocalyptica" - you know, after the Europeans hit the beach and show the Aztecs what slaughter, torture & degradation is really like....?

People can still apply a film like this and it's "philosophies" which was made in 1992 to today or whatever else. I don't need someone pasting it on top of some 'recent' beaten-to-death backdrop. This is idiotic. And Cage doing Keitel's part? Not even close. I can’t stand when people think modernizing “anything” means to put a stamp on it post 911.
