Meh. There are certain movies that just shouldn't be remade. You can't have E.T. without a young Drew Barrymore, you can't have Sixteen Candles without Molly Ringwald & Anthony Michael Hall, you can't have Red Dawn without Patrick Swayze. The list is much longer but... Well, I thought you couldn't remake Footloose and that was ok.

It could have been a LOT worse.

Can't imagine Gone With the Wind without Vivian Leigh.

I watched the remake. 2 thumbs down.

The original is maybe a step or two above the remake. I like the original, but damn it's not some masterpiece

First of all, it's a ridiculous movie. I mean like 80's at its worst bad
Of course it seems ridiculous today. The invading Latin Americans don't arrive with guns. They arrive with pregnant wives. And Colorado teenagers are too busy getting high to bother resisting an invasion.

And I can't believe there has been no love for Charlie Sheen.
