They went a bit overboard with the CGI towards the end but that was to be expected. Entertaining enough but overall the film didn't bring anything new to the table only changing the story to the modern setting making this a slick but ultimately hollow reproduction of De Palma's film.

i'll always say - even at their worst - these things do serve to introduce the original films to new horror fans who do a little research
