Ok.
Was really looking forward to this. I remember the original with David Soul. How, how! Can you mess up, quite easily apparently.
The whole thing was signposted from the start and far too much given away. The whole point of this is what you don't see, what you think is there, your imagination is far scarier at times. The quick fix happy meal generation got it handed to them on a plate and horror / fear was sacrificed for an easy tell. Such a pity!
Not worth the watch. Watch the original or read the book! Save yourself a disappointed two hours.
The mind is far scarier when it's left to fill in the blanks.you fed the audience with far too much info. There were some interesting takes on it that could have elevated it, but you chose the cheaper path and ultimately took the fear out of the equation.

It's not often I'm compelled to write a review.
See it for what it is, it's a trip down a comfortable memory lane for those nostalgia fans, with a bright new twist to the story and a tearful (for me) nod to so many blink and you'll miss them Easter egg moments. The tribute to Harold is one of the nicest things I've seen in a while. Truly !
The story is formulaic, and predictable, but that's where its char actually lies. You buy your favourite snack, cause you know what you're getting, this is it...you favourite snack and it delivers that warm comfort blanket hug you've been looking for.
Don't watch looking for originality. Go watch for the hug from old friends and enjoy the story that should have been, but couldn't be until now.
Gave me a warm glow I didn't realise I was needing.

This movie has been my go to pick me up for such a long time.
It harks back to an era of comedy that we struggle to replicate now.
The chemistry between Robin Nathan and Hank is electric.
The addition of Gene is a master stroke.
A happy, hilarious, moving, genuinely warm look at the absurdity of life and its ripples is laid out for all to see.
Watch this to simply be happy and feel life can be made simple and enjoyable. Watch this to see actors give a lesson in how it should be done .
Life is too short to not have this kind of joy and energy be part of yours.
Robin , Nathan, Hank & the ensemble , I thank you.
