Frankly, I liked the original with Gene Barry. This new one sounds like a clunker.
I don't go to movies for the fool moviemakers's political "thoughts" since I assume they're all libs, anyway. But the movie itself was terrific.
I've seen it and it sort of runs out of gas about halfway through but it was worth it to stick around to the end to see the cameo appearances by Gene Barry and Ann Robinson who were the protagonists in the original
