I saw the new one a couple of weeks ago. It was good - I’d rate it a B. There was a decent-sized crowd there for a Sunday late morning show time. I liked Charles Bronson in the original better, but remakes are rarely as good.
We enjoyed it a lot. We went the first Saturday it was shown, at noon, and there were a lot of people - mostly old like us. ;)
I watched it the other night and totally agree with you. It was ok. Charles Bronson was better.
