This is a weird one to rate. The story was great, and it got more and more intense as the movie went on... but it was filmed like a Hallmark movie. Fishburne, Gooding, and Ice Cube were awesome as expected, but the acting was immensely lacking from everybody else. Not to mention the score sounded like it was out of some family Christmas film. There were also some horribly cheesy lines, and a lot of unnatural dialogue throughout. I think if a great director and writer remade this movie while changing as little as possible, it could be one of the best ever.
