This remake is about the worst movie I've ever seen. It never should have been made. The Burt Reynold's version is far superior. Chris Rock has the best lines. If he wasn't in this, I would have tried to get my money back at the ticket booth. But Rock's stand-up act is a lot funnier than the lines in this movie. Adam Sandler seems to just be going through the motions and Burt has a look in his eye in about every scene that seems to be saying, "Why the hell did we screw with a good thing?" The football action scenes are too much like the original to be considered "fresh" and the writing doesn't add any new angles for improvement in the game shots. Don't waste the money.
