One of the elements that made the original "better" was, no doubt, Charleton Heston and the other Big Name actors. Walberg is not exactly the greatest actor in the world, but here his performance was appropriate for the plot.But in retrospect, that, in and of itself, was no comparison to the remake's ambience created by the Monkees, themselves. To me, in the original, the Monkees were not "real" in that they were wooden, due to the fact of the Monkee Makeup employed. The remake's Monkee's were genuinely feeling and menacing. The original Monkee's were painfully acting, as they were played by their human counterparts. Not that there is anything wrong with this, it's just that, to me, acting should be something unseen, if you will, and natural, a part of every other element of the production. I found it easy to "get into" the film...easier than I thought, compared to other films of this kind.
I was surprised that I liked it. But then that's what makes it a unique viewing experience for me.
Next, I'm going to make the plunge into "Blade". Hope I have as much fun.
