Overall I somewhat agree but if you just look at the interaction between the main 2 characters and the events as they transpire...they did a good job...I didn't like the original much but the remake surprised me.

There is nothing worse than a SciFi channel B-movie...
I gotta say one thing though. Some of those channel movies can be a B+!  :D

Man for All Seasons won six Oscars, including Best Picture and Best Actor. The guy who dominated the movie was Robert Shaw as Henry VIII; he was nominated for Best Supporting Actor but didn't get it.

First one that comes to mind is Anthony Hopkins in The Silence of the Lambs.  Absolutely fantastic.  I guess you could say Jodi Foster gets an honorary mention, but Hopkins is simply unbeatable in that role.

Agreed.
Just about anything Hopkins is in.
same thing with Brando
and Pacino.

Casino - the portrayal of Robert DeNiro and Sharon Stones relationship in that movie is just remarkable. its compelling and uncomfortable to see, like watching a really detailed, super slomo, very traumatic car crash happening. throws more love, power, lust, addiction, betrayal and whole host of other stuff into the "romantic interest" part of the movie than the rest of hollywood could even imagine. stunning performances from both (plus Scorsese and whoever wrote it) :aok
