Seen Black Mountain Side yet? Same kind of story.

Eh true but those two seem particularly abysmal.

They are not for everyone.

That was meant for Baron's comment about how every year is the year of pointless remakes. I forgot to quote his post

Shame on you.

I didn't think the Martyrs remake was abysmal -- it was actually not a bad film -- but it just didn't seem necessary. If you go into it bracing yourself for the endurance test that the original was, you'll walk out disappointed, saying, "Well that was too easy." If it were possible to approach the film without comparing it to the original (which is ludicrous, given how notorious the original is, and recently it was released), it's still a good story, well executed, beautifully filmed, great soundtrack, and despite the lack of gore, the tension is still there. Also, one big change they made to the story allows the personal bond between the main characters to be more deeply explored. Still though, it's hard to imagine many people liking it much, except maybe people who have never seen, and know nothing about, the original.

Cabin Fever, on the other hand, from what I've read, I'm expecting to completely waste 90 minutes of my life on that one.

Creed (2015)

Not bad but it's no Rocky.

Been looking forward to that one ever since I first read about it. I found a webrip about a week ago but it's without subtitles. I have no problem understanding but it takes a little too much effort to really enjoy a movie. Especially when the focus is on the story and the dialogue.

You seen it yet? And no spoilers ;)

I liked it. The acting is pretty good. Although, it lacked that climactic ending The Last Winter had.

Good spoiler. ::big grin::

This surely is one of those why-the-fuck remakes. Almost exactly the same story as the original but with far worse actors.

I do have 1 positive thing to say about this remake tho. The score was amazing and deserved to be in a much, much better movie.
