Lots of foreign films remade in the U.S-some are pretty good. The Seven Samurai/The Magnificent Seven, for example. Maybe not as good as the original, but still a respectable film.
Yea but i know what you mean but they are usauly very differant like the departed was a remake of a hong kong move
But this one looks like it was filmed on the same set lol
I don't doubt it. Sometimes I think it's just about saving money, and not having to come up with your own creative ideas. Funny how the foreign films are so often superior.
