Nostalgia is a great thing when it happens, and it could be a new narrative or in this case, a new film in an old franchise. The '84 original was a time capsule of action/comedy perfection... and all you need to do is capture the pace and characters of the original formula, but with something new for a new audience and a returning one. It has a funny and fast paced opening, with all the language, chases and ridiculous decisions made by both the bad guys and police. You just gotta hang on to your seat hope the rest of the film plays out well... It does...! It doesn't try to be something new or inventive, it just goes for the gold and glory of the original concept and characters... oh, and the soundtrack rocks...! Hit play, and enjoy...
