Remakes don't in general hold up, I think the movie industry is screwed.

So far I'm liking it. Crazy Kevorkian nurse is an added bonus, holy crap. Chris Rock has been a surprise to me.

I am talking about the FX Tv series with Chris Rock trying to pull off being a much older gangster (the gray in his hair is so fake looking) and kingpin.

The only decent actor is the guy playing Rock's right hand man. He should have got the part Rock got...........

The Italian goons are awful too. They are a cartoon or caricature of real people. I get the Coen brothers make everybody into a caricature, but this is pure trash

All I know is I have a major league crush on nurse Mayflower. Don't ask me why? I just don't know.

I think the movie industry is doing OK. It's the sit down movie theaters that are in trouble. Eventually direct to video and direct to streaming will dominate the industry.
