Never saw the original in the theatre, though have it on DVD. As a computer person, it visualized the world that I work with.
This experience was very good, for both my son and I. It has good graphics and good action without the violence that depicts so many current movies.
I liked the animation, and only wish it had more racing scenes. Seeing Flynns was a treat, especially, the hidden room.
The movie got a bit slow 3/4 of the way through, but I liked the ending...
Don't wait for the video, just go see it...
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Great movie about NYCs' Salsa scene

If you like dancing to Salsa, you wil enjoy this movie.. It is all about the NY Salsa scene from both the dancer and performer perspectives. It provides really good insight in to the motivation of all parties. Aside from a minor technical glitch, this is a really good production. A very good mix of personal stories and the music scene, both blended together nicely without being overdone, one way or the other.
The connection to Boy's Harbor was new 411 for me.
PS: If you are a fan of Grupo Latin Vibe, your really going to love this movie. Or if you are an NYC Salsa dancer, then do not be surprise if you see somebody you know, or have danced with. I did... :-)
for an academy award for either the film or the acting of both Liev Schrieber and Daniel Craig. Aside from being a serious movie of the holocaust, I really enjoyed seeing this movie. It was well made and good to watch. Not too long, and not too caught up in just the suffering, but also gives us a very good understanding of the real impact on individuals that the Nazi reign of terror had on real people.
I was drawn to watch this movie based on an Charlie Rose interview held the night before seeing it.
Thanks goes to Ed Zwick and his staff for producing this much needed work.
BTW: The Ziegfeld theater was a very good venue to see it..
