As Harry matures so do these movies. This Harry was dark and mysterious but didn't leave me out because I haven't read the book. Harry and pals are facing more grownup problems in love and life. All the characters are showing what they've learned over the years. This movie was spellbinding.
I would give it B-. It was close to the story of the 1957 original. The story & acting was alittle flat but the effects were good. As in the original, it played on the war raw nerves of Americans. I'm not sure it would reach an audience not familiar with the older film.
