OK, here’s the thing: the 1994 remake isn’t a bad movie, it’s just a completely unnecessary one. Starring Richard Attenborough, Dylan McDermott, Elizabeth Perkins and Mara Wilson, it doesn’t really add anything new or special, which is obvious as the original 1947 still tends to get more airplay all these years later.
Choice Review: “The movie’s a slow-moving, overblown, never-better-than-competent rendition of the original.”
