Query: A FLOP!

Don't bother wasting your money on this remake of the original 1968 release starring Zero Mostel and Gene Wilder! I don't think I have ever seen Matthew Broderick give such a poor preformance and sound so pathetically lame! Who the hell was the casting director! You could tell Broderick was trying sooo hard to capture every vocal inflection and nuance that Gene Wilder gave to the original film. Broderick came off as though he was 'acting' which is not indicative of a proffessional actor!He failed miserably at imitating the brilliant preformance that Wilder gave to the role!As for Nathan Lane, well.. kind of hit and miss,trying sooo hard to imitate Zero Mostel that he comes off as trying to do just that, but sounding like a lame duck! Hey Lane! Stick to animation voice-overs!The only actor that really did a decent job was Will Ferrel.His preformance was the only saving grace to this disaster of a remake!Thumbs down on this one! Thumbs way up on the original!
