    Gyllenhaal has noodle arms. Horrible choice.

    He'll take over the Terry Funk Jr, Asshole Role...

    How about we do a different movie? Why remake movies like this? There are a million great stories that have never made the screen.

    While i agree with you across the board, this one I'm looking forward to.
    long live @Wade Garrett !!!

    im more interested in this character than swayzes. They better hit a home run, cause topping Sam Elliot wont be easy. If they dont nail that part, i predict it will be a complete flop. Sam as wade is right up there with Val Kilmer as Doc Holiday.

    Watched it last night with the wife. It was fun. The story could have been better. Conor McGregor is not a good actor. The fighting scenes were good. The UFC scenes are very short. It makes for a fun popcorn movie. The original was better.

    They should have remade it with Kenny Powers in the starring role.

    It was Conor's first acting gig. I thought it wasn't that bad. Remember the Rock in Scorpion King? He was awful. Conor's charisma is undeniable. I think he will act again and continue to improve.

    I thought it was alright. CGI during the fights and the weird truck scene felt unnecessary. McGregor definitely isn't a good actor, but he is so coked up that his performance felt like a deleted subplot in that Michael Bay movie Pain & Gain. The original was so good because you'd come across it on cable and see Terry Funk and just say screw it, I'm in from that point. Easy to watch. Now you have to go on Prime and put this on, it's almost the wrong way to watch something like this.
