i really enjoyed this movie. i have never seen the original so i can't compare but this film was exceptionally tight plotted and gripping. it twists and turns and is far from predictable. i didn't think i'd like this as much as i did. i actually thought it would be boring but boy was i wrong. it kept me entertained and thrilled and second guessing the whole way through. it is very well made, very well shot, very well edited, very well directed and very well acted. denzel (who i'm not such a fan of) was great. liev was great, the rest of the supporting cast was great and meryl was, us usual,... read

its a remake of a movie based on a book adapted from a better story (i, claudius), but denzel washington and liev schreiber are so good throughout. its a little rough around the edges in terms of plot, but it holds up for what it is. read

não conheço o clássico, este enredo prende desde o início, é instigante e muito bem conduzido todos os elementos fazendo a gente duvidar de tudo de forma relativamente convincente. read

objectively pretty ok but not really my cup of tea. though the premise was intriguing if utterly far-fetched, i found the action was really dragged out and consequently kinda boring. meryl was the only actor worth watching. i realise denzel and liev were the victims of mind control but oh my god, the pair of them walking around like zombies wasn't compelling watching. just look at the poster. that was denzel for the whole movie. read

the manchurian candidate (2004) is a decent enough political thriller with good actor performances and a screenplay that didn't ruin the movie its a remake of and the book both are based on. can't ask for much more than that. i put out watching this one because i actually like the original very much but was pleasantly surprised. i still recommend the original more, but if you want a more "updated" version, this is an adequate replacement. read
