Surprisingly quite liked it. I only rented this as a Friday night sort of romp, but actually quite enjoyed it. It kept me on the edge of my seat from start until finish. Never seen the original, but this was enjoyable enough that I'm happy not to have. There was far too much unnecessary swearing, and blood, but I guess in a film like this it would have looked strange without. The plot was a little thin, but that's fine too. Laurence Fishburne's performance was truly very chilling and fitted in perfectly with the general feel of the film. I was genuinely quite scared towards the end. As action films go I'd actually rather watch than Die Hard.
