Is this a remake of the original classic?

You can't improve on the original!

Maybe not, but they can make a TV show out of it.

Will be giving it a go when it's released.

Just why ?

Wasn't what made the Denzel remake so good was Creasy wasn't indestructible and was slowly dying ?

Will there be bum bombs ?

The Netflix content fire hose must flow.

Sooner or later they will remake, reboot, re-release or make a series out of just about everything in the eternal quest to generate content to justify their yearly price increases.

I look forward to Late Stage Netflixism.

He only got shot towards the end, prior to that he was fine

No he didn't, he got shot during the Fanning girl kidnap and his whole rampage was whilst wounded.

Brilliant film. Not expecting much from this though. Thought non specific gender person on fire would be more their thing these days

Out of ideas comes to mind but il give it a chance as it was such a great film.

During the kidnapping, Creasy is shot multiple times and severely injured, but he survives and begins his rampage to find her.

Creasy is mortally wounded later in the film, when he is shot by Aurelio Sánchez (the brother of "The Voice") while attempting to secure information.

The main reason I know this is that there was a deleted scene where he bangs the mother. You wouldn't do that if someone was bleeding out of a gunshot!
