    Smart, satisfying action entertainment that is also a perceptive work of considerable artistry.

    A slicked up, perfectly watchable update of a movie that was just about perfect on its own bleakly seedy terms.

    Whatever spark the newer Precinct 13 has comes from its supporting players.

    What is good and redeeming about this film is the atmosphere and mood. Feels almost like it could be a horror film. Some of this film has the atmosphere of and could remind some of the game Resident Evil 2.… Expand

    Just because you probably won't believe a minute of it doesn't mean you won't have a good time. Sit back, don't ask any questions,and enjoy. P.S. Was the original really as well received as the critics say it was?… Expand
