A remake of the 1989 classic. Although the Plot description of the film is no different now.
The main cast itself cannot be compared. While the original Swayze is a legend of his time, Gyllenhaal of today's version is certainly great in my opinion, but not up to the same level.
Cons.. The first thing that came to mind was the momentarily bad decisions in filming, which of course did not affect the movie experience much in the end.
The biggest minus was the use of McGregor. You write what you read about the guy, as if he were acting himself. An asshole, that's a big mistake.
Finally some good stuff.
Some impressive downright flying cgi scenes.
A familiar and safe story.
Only a few well-known actors gave a workable result.
Bottom line.. an 8 star movie drops to just 6 stars, mainly because of McGregor.
