I'm not a huge Spike Lee fan but I'll pay to go see this. Apparently it's a remake from a Korean flick made in 03.



After some looking around, the Korean version has 81% at RT.

The Korean film is on Netflix, is boring and gross. IMO.

YMMV, naturally.

I suppose it's like anything else, but good Korean films are fantastic. Bad Korean films are ... really bad.

That being said, doesn't really strike me as a Spike Lee film. I'm kind of torn about seeing it.

Apparently Spielberg had it on his plate but didn't get around to doing it.
