Given the controversy that surrounds the remake and that I recall that DDT had characters named after characters from the 1984 classic, I thought I would ask. So far the reviews I trust say that it is mediocre to average, but sound pretty underwhelming for a studio that wants to create an MCU-level franchise with it.
Personally, I don't want to pay full price for it. 2D movie tickets at my nearby theatre cost $13.25 and five bucks more than that for 3D. Given that Star Trek Beyond is coming out next week, I want to save that money to take my mother to it for a belated Mother's Day/birthday present.
