Let me start off by saying the hate this "remake" gets is unjustified. I say that because this really isn't a remake, it's much more than that. If you wanted a scene-for-scene remake why not just rewatch the original? The original film wasn't as much about characters or story as it was about incredible visuals and cinematography. This movie instead takes plot points from the originals, fleshed them out and expanded upon them incredibly well. All around great performances. Tilda Swinton, however stood out to me the most. She played three different characters and I didn't even realise until days later! The soundtrack by Thom Yorke is beautiful and fits suprisingly well into a movie like this. I loved this movie from beginning to end. Even though there's a lot of hate around this film, I can't recommend it enough. You'll very likely find a lot to enjoy about it once you get over the fact that it isn't the same movie as the original.
