Why remake a classic? Unless you’re just admitting you have no ideas of your own.

We saw the 1989 version. I think we’ll pass on this one.

The first movie was good, and Danny DeVito’s speech at the end was superb, and wise.

But this was the kind of movie that absolutely does NOT call for a remake. Another brain dead studio mistake.

This second cinematic version of Warren Adler’s 1981 novel The War of the Roses

For the love of God, please stop making "reboots" or remakes of old movies. Hollywood doesn't have a creative bone it is collective body anymore.

This is one of my favorite husband/wife fights in a movie. From "The Money Pit", starring Tom Hanks and Shelley Long.

Walter: It's a big house, we'll divide it up! You stay in your half, I'll stay in mine!

Anna: That is such a dumb idea. Sometimes it amazes me you ever passed the bar.

Walter: I'm sure it does, you've never passed a bar in your life.

Anna: You are so much less attractive when I'm sober.

Walter: Thank goodness it's not that often.

"Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner"

Those two have such amazing chemistry on camera. Loved them in 'Romancing the Stone.' So MUCH chemistry that Douglas almost got divorced from first wife Diandra but I guess she hung in there long enough for him to dump her for CZJ. ;)

Rules!

I like Benedict Cumberbatch. I will pass on this one. I guess I am a minority opinion, but I did not care for the original movie.

Surprised they weren’t DEI replacements.

Well, this is a pan. It’s not a great pan, but it’s most definitely a pan.
