Awful slow pacing so that i'm finish with the plot. I don't need 2 guys going through same dreams, i'm not a dumb ass needing 2 times the same demonstration. This is under every thing comparable, S. Fuller movies or Dr. Strangelove eventually. How it gets 8.1, i wonder !
The acting is under B series level, completely wooden, in fact there is no acting, only reading text. First time in my life i see this.
Really how someone can like this kind of movie, maybe someone can explain ? And how it get 8,1, why not 11 ?
Frankenheimer or Frankenstein ? I cant wait 2h for watching the end, if the end is redeeming the movie. Sorry.

Have you ever encountered a person who was already unlikable and then was turned into a robotic killer through brainwashing? Probably not. So what qualifies you to say Mr. Harvey's acting was so bad. I found his performance quite credible. Are you a paid actor?

Who do think was such a poor actor? Sinatra, Lansbury, Harvey? They were all absolutely outstanding.
Sinatra is good, Lansbury is more than OK, Harvey is pretty bad. There's quite a bit B level acting here. The movie as a whole has some interesting imagery but can get a bit cartoonish at times.

Lemme guess. OP is a male between age 22 to 30 and thinks Forrest Gump and Shawshank Redemption are classics. Also believes Citizen Kane is a snoozefest and doesn't understand the big deal about Taxi Driver.
No, he is Forrest Gump.

It is so over rated. Some very poor acting.

This is "not a good movie"?! Well, I've seen it at least 50 times throughout the past 50+ years, and I'm watching it again on Encore. I was going to switch over to TCM to watch a movie I've never seen before, one I was looking forward to viewing.
But, I became so engrossed in this "not good" film and missed the switch-over time! I'm still watching, too! TCM just has to wait this time it seems.
Now, why would I forget that I wanted to see another movie, film buff that I am? How silly! After all, this is "not a good movie"~right?!

I can't say I agree. The original will always be the true masterpiece, but I thought the remake operated well in a modern setting with an equally insidious and treasonous plot.

No, it's the remake that's not a good movie. THIS is cinematic gold.

Awful slow pacing so that i'm finish with the plot. I don't need 2 guys going through same dreams, i'm not a dumb ass needing 2 times the same demonstration
Because if they only showed it happening to one guy, it might just be a dream. You need two to show it really happened.
