EXCLUSIVE: Paramount Pictures is giving a face lift to Face/Off, the 1997 John Woo-directed action thriller that starred John Travolta and Nicolas Cage. The studio will reboot the film, with new cast. Oren Uziel has been set to write the script, and Neal Moritz will produce and David Permut will be executive producer.

Waste of time and money.

No one is clamoring for a remake of this.

The action was fine - the whole idea of it was reeruned.

Yea. I would agree with that. If I remember right, it started out as more of a pure sci-fi film, then had its budget cut. So it ended up set in a modern world with an outrageous premise.

Cool action and over the top performances though from Cage and Travolta

I don't remember that; I just couldn't get past the idea that switching facial skin would make a person look identical to another person. Never mind teeth, eyes, bone structure, physical body characteristics, etc. Felt the same way about Darkman, which was dumb as **** for the exact same reason.

Good Lord, why?

Are they going to keep the over-acting in the film?

eDave 09-09-2019 09:29 PM
Don't mess with a classic. I love that stupid movie.

This will most likely get gender flipped

Scarlet Johansson and Jennifer Lawrence

Original is fine for an action film. I really can't believe there is a single person out there asking for this to be remade.

I'd much rather have a Demolition Man reboot any day.

Also, give me another Dredd movie with Urban.

It would be hard to top the original Demolition Man for cheesy action/comic goodness. It would also be hard to top young Sandra Bullock's ass in those tight black pants. :drool:

And definitely we need another Urban Dredd. That movie was amazing.

It's the only chance it's got.

But they won't do it. They'll try to make it 'gritty and realistic' and take any fun out of it at all.

Travolta and Cage chewing scenery was the only thing that made that movie watchable.

You take that back. Darkman is awesome(ly bad).
