Mini-Review: A smooth and enjoyable ride, with fine performances by the two leads. Aykroyd is likable in an unusual 'straight' role as Tandy's son, though you can never quite forget who's playing the part, especially with such obvious makeup.

Mini-Review: Remake of a genuinely great film puts an intriguing, modern spin on the depiction of backroom power brokers but lacks the chilling edge- and starkness- that marked the original.
