Why remake this? It's a total classic...It's been on T.V. many times,showed conclusively that Walter Matthau had a broader range than just comedy,although he does bring levity to the piece. Tarantino ripped-off the colours as names thing, Robert Shaw is trulling chilling as the ruthless Mr Blue,next to Jaws it's one of his most memorable roles.This is dark,and humorous in varying doses and i really dont see how it could be improved upon. The last thing we need,for instance is an "up-dating" to include the whole "War on Terror",post 9/11 Scenario... Don't go to see it..get this on DVD,it's probably in the bargain bin!
