[T]his new 2003 version is nothing like the original but for the premise and the name.

Focuses on two boring old men trying to be tough guys while bonding in convoluted and downright stupid situations. A dud.

Fleming and co. were working from a version that had clicked very well in 1979, and such interest as posterity has in this new take will be in its usefulness as a masterclass in how not to remake a movie.

It's wonderful watching Michael Douglas and Albert Brooks having so much fun. It's also great to see a summer movie that doesn't rely on special effects.

What we are left with is a movie that carefully aims to be all-family entertainment, but you can't imagine any family member particularly wanting to watch it.

This movie has more misfires than hits.

Medocre se analisada isoladamente, esta refilmagem se torna ainda mais constrangedora quando comparada ao divertido original.

A sloppy excuse for 95 minutes of celluloid . . . Andrew Fleming's film should be outlawed for its sheer laziness alone.

Like most weddings, it's more tedious than terrific. The humour is one note, with the same jokes being told and retold throughout the film.

| Original Score: 57/100 | Oct 29, 2003

...a tepid remake at best and a dreary exercise in wastefulness at worst.

| Original Score: 5/10 | Oct 8, 2003

The kind of sequel-and-remake overkill that turns Hollywood on-and on and on.

It's good to see Douglas, who's so good at those nasty Gordon Gekko types, take on a comic role but he has little chemistry with Brooks

scriptwriters fill in plotting gaps with unnecessary jokes at the expense of minorities, as the story heads towards a deflated, kind of begrudgingly happy ending
