ASS ON PRECINCT 13
I get it. The re-make of Assault on Precinct 13is really Die Hard. Ethan Hawke is John Maclane. The Amos and Andy duo of Ja Rule and John Leguizamo are twin versions of the chauffer, Argyle. Brian Dennehy is that slick grinning asskissing yuppie guy (only neither slick nor grinning), and Gabriel Byrne is Hans Gruber.

It really is a pathetic movie. Everything wrong with the Hollywood aesthetic boiled down into one stupidized plot. Halfway through the movie you stop giving a shit who does or does not make it out of Precinct 13 alive
