Stop with the comparisons This movie was a fun, thrilling ride. Stop comparing it to older movies and just sit back and enjoy it.
If you want a movie with tons of action, great fighting scenes, and cheeky romance, then this one's for you. Jake Gyllenhaal does a great job, so does the other actors. But this being on Amazon prime, I was pleasantly surprised at how good the fighting scenes and action really was, I haven't had this much fun in a while from a movie that a streaming company has made.
The setting is also gorgeous, the music fits in so well, and the story was good for being Action. Don't compare it to the old movie, and just have fun, take a beer, some snacks and feel the adrenaline kick in.
