you are also a gamer, so your score is nil and void.The patented luv score is the modern standard.
remakes?
Remakes don't often go well can't think of one that's better than the original.
SCARFACE (1983)
The movie that spawned a million dorm room posters and impressions of Al Pacino is a remake of Howard Hawks’s 1932 film that was neutered by the Hays Code. That version still shows the violent rise of a gangster based on Al Capone, but it had to explicitly condemn everything shown on screen and tack on the subtitle The Shame of a Nation (just in case audiences thought killing people was something to aspire to). It’s absolutely one of the most important genre pictures in the vault, but Brian De Palma’s Miami-set festival of bullets successfully updated it with a slathering of drug-fueled, 1980s greed. Like its forebear, De Palma’s movie had its own struggles with the ratings board, leading to it earning a debilitating X rating because of its intense violence.

Hard to compare the old black and white films, I really liked the original.
